Probably not a very early Custom 8, as the headlight doors were changed from body color paint to chrome quite early on (about #4100 on the sedans). Not a very late one either, as the open front bumper was changed to a solid bar-style about #9200 on the sedans. These estimates by Ed Ostrowski. It would be nice to have corresponding body numbers of these changeovers for the 2259s, perhaps Robert Neal's forthcoming book will have some further information on that.

PS - above in reference to the car pictured in Gusha's link.
