Are you sure this body is a limo? Please measure wheelbase and let us know. Your "thief-proof" number dates the body to 1953; your engine# (with one too many digits) is a 1953 Clipper DeLuxe and your VN tag is for a 1954 Clipper DeLuxe. The other numbers you mention (433528, 1 22 53 and 12 8 52) are casting numbers and dates which are consistent with 1953 production. However, none of these are consistent with a long wheelbase (149 inch) limo. Appears that you've got a mongrel, of which, unfortunately, there are far too many these days, resulting from folks who just can't resist buggering a car. How about a few pictures?
