    Early 50s Chevy or other GM is my guess.

    It seems that the taillights (holes), the cluster/dash, and the grille (possibly?) that's in the car are significant clues.

    The dash is definitely early 50's Pontiac.

    '50 - round gauges & built-in backup lites vs. hang-on ...

    That's not the grille that is in the car, it's the silver streak that goes on the center of the hood or trunk. Defiantly and early 50's Pontiac.

    Ahh, yes, that makes sense. I like the waterfall trim.

    Bummer, the split windshield looks to be curved.

    It is and it's available. I believe it's the same as a Chev or an Olds 88.

    If anyone wants to try to get it ... I contacted them and it hasn't worked out yet and I'm wanting it less. It looks like it has a straight-8.
