Leave it to Beaver! Well, it appears they don't want the year to be identified. The swipe out of the hood, the fill in of the wheels, and leaving the door open! HMMPF! Some 58's had a solid bumper, some did not. Some 59's had blackened in around the front bumper hangers, some did not. Some 60's had the same style gas cap door as the 58's, but a solid bumper, with a chromed ring around the bumper hangers, and the radio antennae mounted to far end of the driver side rear fender. Some did not. It's 'appears' newer than a 57, and older than a 61! The grill itself leads to confusion, because it has the rounded top of the 60, but the bow of the 58.
With the top front fender chrome strip present, the grill, and the antennae, Felix says it's a 1960, mid year model, with the 283 fuelie, and 4 spd transmission.
And yes it does have a very unique persona.
