DynaMike ◊ 2008-06-17 21:50	I'd say it's a 1946-1948 Dodge (by the grille), and by the lack of chrome on the rar fender it will be a DeLuxe [D-24-S].

pilou ◊ 2008-06-18 13:17	Yes , the Plymouth based Dodges were export models only.They came as the Dodge Special DeLuxe in Canada built in Chrysler's Windsor factory and as the Dodge Kingsway in the other markets built in other Chrysler plants among them Antwerp.The 1946-48 Dodge Kingsways also used Plymouth's 217.8 cid 95 hp engine.
