Looks to be a 1952 Aero Wing because of the stainless steel window moldings and the F-head engine. Could be a 1953 Aero Falcon but that is supposed to have a flathead 161 engine like a Henry J 6 cylinder.

Hey Rick...I thought those wheel covers were only used in 1955...

Lousy pics, can't make out the wheel covers. They look like '55's with the black "W" in the center. 1952 full wheel discs would be just a raised "W". Attached is factory photo of 1952 Aero Wing with the full wheel disc for 1952.
