Nope,it's a 51.It's got 2 "jet intakes" in the grille,49 & 50 only had 1 in the center of the grille.I remember when my father bought his used back in late 53 or early 54 when I was going on 4 years old.

Yeah,I was a gearhead as a little kid,my father would drive around with his buddies in the car and ask me what every car on the road was and I almost never missed on the make,year and model. Now I don't know hardly any of them since the 70's,especially not the imports except a very few,I have to ask my son what the he!! they are. It seems like they pretty much all look alike and I don't bother to familiarize myself with all the subtle changes unless I'm really interested in the car.
Heck,I remember being able to name every car at night just by seeing the headlights or tailights.
