well i know my 49-50?:D the 49 has more small teeth uprights in the grill and a turn handle on the truck lid. the 50 has NO teeth in the bottom row of the grill and the 50 has a pull up handle on the trunk and has the spears on it looks like a T. this week i will have had my 50 chevy for 30 years:D
No pics of direct family but this is father in law about the age of 10 he is 77 now . Maybe a little lead on the sedan i have .
