Thanks all for the replies. It's a '50. Short story, is that around 1989 my front oak tree came down and crushed my '53. Realizing it was too damaged for me to repair, I went out the next day and made an old lady a offer she couldn't refuse on her late husband's '50. Drove it home ( a whopping 3 miles away), raised both trucks and swapped out the entire drive trains (rear end, driveshaft, transmission & motor) resulting in replacing a very weak 216 in the '50 with a very strong 235 from the '53 that I knew very well.
We've been purrring ever since.

I had a '50 5-window like yours for several years. Spent a lot of time and money chasing rust since we salt the roads around here.
