I've recently watched a film where a great deal of 49 Ford products appear, including a 49 Ford with rear vent windows, however without any window chrome or a fender emblem. The car above also appears to lack any chrome around the windows - and recalling that the Japanese like to "chrome up" Fords during this era in particular - I sheepishly ignored the fender emblem and vent windows when I listed it, in case you're wondering.
