58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-06-07 19:06	The De Soto looks to be a Deluxe model S-14 of 1950. I risk being wrong in guessing that the Deluxe series had slightly less trim than the Custom series, as is evident in the lack of chrome mouldings behind the front wheel openings. The only way from this angle to tell a 49 from a 50 would be to look for a wide chrome moulding below the A-pillar vent window. Otherwise, the code for the 1949 Custom and Deluxe models is S-13.

DynaMike ◊ 2008-06-11 12:33	I think one can see that extra chrome under the vent window, so I'd go for a 1950 DeLuxe [S-14-1].
