    Beltline trim looks like '50 Dodge. Gotta be some form of 49-50 Mopar 4 door sedan.

    I could be wrong, but judging by the upholstery on the seat, I believe it is a Chrysler Highlander. The Highlander was an interior package, more or less, that was plaid interior for a Scottish flavor. They made it for a number of years, but I haven't been able to pin point which year it is yet.

    Can't make any better guess ID'ing the car but take a close look at the driveway underneath it. There's boxes marked in chalk with numbers in them for playing hopscotch or boxball or one of them games. Probally put there by one of your partner's parents!

    definetly 49, or 50 mopar. i had that same trim on my 49 new yorkers, and my 50 plymouth. i cant read the fender script, but maybe imperial, or new yorker.
    i am leaning towards a 49 dodge. for the simple reason that the fender script on a 49 plymouth and a 49 chrysler tends to be above the trim, and the dodge scrips tends to be below.

    I was thinking maybe De Soto. The script was below the trim on them.
