DynaMike ◊ 2008-02-28 23:33	That's right, this car must be older, since it's not that easu to change the place of the wipers... But as Sixcyl said, several things are not original on this car. TThe whote steering wheel only came in 1954, the dark blue paint in 1955, the bumper and the indicators are not original, but it will be (most probably) a post war car: non chromed headlights, new bonnet, strips on the doors, stoneguards, BM wheels. By the stoneguard on teh rear fender (and the old wipers) I'd guess it's a 1948-1952 model.
