Commander 57 ◊ 2012-03-08 17:55	1954 is correct. Top trim line with the heavy chromed side spear. Not a Land Cruiser since no rear door window vent. As to Champion vs Commander, cannot tell from view shown. Both had the top trim line available. Commanders had V-8 emblems on the front fender vent doors or just aft of them. Cannot see this area on the subject photo. Better shot? (Also the nameplate would be on the right side of the trunk lid lift wing, also not visible.) -- Last edit: 2012-03-08 17:57:37

Commander 57 ◊ 2012-03-08 21:54	Thanks. Still can't tell for certain, but will assume the trunk emblem seen is the Commander "V-8" and not the Champion "V-S". Note accessory back-up lamps.
