    I took this picture in a local junk yard a couple of years ago. I could not find any identifying trim, hubcaps, Dealer's trim, or model name on it. I was dumbfounded, because I thought I knew most models from the early 50's. Any way, I was digging through my old pictures and thought someone on here could identify it. The sad part is, a week after I went back to purchase some parts, the whole junk yard had been cleared for scrap. The owner was getting old and someone made him an offer for his land he couldn't refuse. The sad part, Desoto grill, Buick finned drums, flathead engines all gone. Cars from the late 30's through the 60's, none later. Thanks for your input. doug and pete (5).jpg
