Commander 57 ◊ 2010-09-19 16:28	This is a Champion 2-door. Year hard to tell owing to distance and blurriness but I will go with 1948. The bumper guards look too small and thin to be '47 units and the bumpers themselves appear to have optional wing guards which the '49's did not need owing to the fact they were wrap-around. There also appears to be a suggestion of a single, full-length horizontal grille bar, a feature unique to '48 Champions. Too far away to tell if car has bright windshield or rocker panels, a feature of Regal Deluxe models. -- Last edit: 2010-09-19 23:07:20
