23rd series mid-49 began the oval taillights and the chrome on the side moved from the bottom to a point higher on the side although I thought I remembered it going the full length of the side. The wiper knob moved from the dash to the steering column, rear window was a bit more squared off across the bottom.

I grew up with dad's 49/50 coupe/2 door sedan, his was the more basic model with the 288.

Beautiful car.


In addition to the wiper knob move, the wiper motor also moved. That one being toward the drivers side is another indication of a 22nd series 48-49. 23rd series 49-50 moved the wiper motor to the center under the hood prop mount.
