    Interesting to note that the windshield frame is a different color, if in fact an original slide as stated, in the TV series I don’t remember this discrepancy. I’m pretty sure it was grey and matched the color of the Jeep. Maybe there’s a trivia wiz out there that knows the answer.

    I didn’t notice that. It looks like the arms might have some spray on them, but most of it is red. Curious for sure.

    Looks like primer red. Maybe they were in the middle of painting the frame flat black like you see in most color photos of Nellybelle- for whatever reason they would have painted it black. Have seldom seen a gray one on Nellybelle. but remember … there was more than one original Nellybelle.

    Look closer guys. The driver is not Roy Rogers, it is Pat Brady, with a female passenger next to him and Dale Evans is on the right side of Nellybelle. Roy might be in the small group towards the rear of the Jeep. I was personally acquainted with both Roy and Dale and the driver isn’t Roy, but his sidekick Pat Brady.

    Colin,
    Having known Roy & Dale, do you have any interesting stories waiting to be told. I never knew anybody famous, but I still have stories to tell, and great memories. Fill us in, how did you form a friendship with Roy & Dale?
