I find that front trim on some models, the rear trim (4 portholes) in some others different but I can't find both rear and front trim for one Packard model

Modified or some sort of export variety.
Has a '51 front but '53 Cavalier style side trim with extra sections added.

This is the last frame of this part of the scene

In the red marked area I think the car gets the trim (little moulding as tail-lights extensions) of the '53 Cavalier with four portholes after market added. http://www.nashnut.com/sg08-53pack2.jpg

Those 4 ornaments were seen on 1952 Packard 400 Patricians.

Believe I will list as a 1953 Packard Cavalier, modified pending dissent.
From what I can see of the windshield, it appears to me to be of the '53/'54 variety.
That is coupled with the 1953 Cavalier side trim.

Someone has simply tacked on a '51 front clip plus extra side trim.

Yes. It can be a good solution. Thanks Commander.
