nzcarnerd ◊ 2017-03-12 21:01	Found some guff here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Mainline It would seem that the Mainline got the wrap around screen in 1955, which styling they kept until 1959, so this car is earlier. This one is probably 1952-3 as it does not have the wrap around grille piece that the '54 has.
