Glad you posted.  Your car is a Manhattan?  I note it has some upscale trim which the yellow car lacks and needs.

My car is a 1952 Manhattan 2-door Traveler, 1 of zero made. Don Rouse created this car in the 1970's from a 51 Special 2-door Traveler and a couple of '52-'53 Manhattans. I wanted to finish the job in the interior but never got to it. On my way home from Michigan when I bought the car, I stopped to see Jack & Barbara Mueller, then living in Cave Springs, KY. He and I researched what would've been correct if that car was built by the factory. The car has a 1951 Special 2-door Traveler VIN.
