Here are several more photos. These show some exterior details.

Question about the rear bumper: Does the fillet on the top front edge of the bumper only appear on the early cars? This looks different to me than what I remember with other '55 senior cars.

The RF vent window photo shows the 'EZ Eye' inscription, just barely, in the glass.

Also included is a close up of what I believe to be propane system controls. Is this correct?

Remaining photos are general exterior and I will sort through and post them.

Others are working on information about a previous owner, and we will see what they discover.

Just noticed the date code on the vent window glass (SAFETY 4 16L). I believe this is the date code of December 16, 1954). Anyone remember how auto glass was coded in those days?
