I'll check with the owner to see if that will be ok with him. Off the top of my head, I can tell you that the body number is only one digit off from the VIN. Body ends in 54 and VIN ends in 55. I believe the car was built in late March or early April of 1948. The Borg clock is stamped Feb '48 and I think the engine block and head were cast in mid-March.
