    Another great thread. All of the cars are interesting, no matter what they are. It's history.

    '46-'47 on the left (I think the parking lights moved below the headlights in mid-1947) and '49 on the right ('50s had the Ford Crest instead of the F-O-R-D lettering).

    Great thread.

    Two recent posts noting details on car's on the line that were not "correct" for year / trim level etc.. I think this was more common in those days. My Dad had a new 49', 53', and 55' - He said his 49' was a late build and showed up with 50' bumpers, and trunk handle / plate surround. His 53' had some 52' interior trim parts. By 55' he was doing well enough to step up from stripped Customline's to a loaded Fairlane - his car wasn't supposed to have any engine dress items per the paperwork (not ordered), but showed up with not only a bunch of chrome, but half of it was T-Bird stuff that wasn't available on the Fairlane. Different time when things weren't let go to waste, and computers didn't forecast things down to the last unit.
