Thanks, that's a neat list.
A big surprise to me was realizing just how advanced the '51 is. I've had a '49 and a '50. The 1951 has to be the best of the series. It's surprising how advanced they really were over the '50.

I think the '51 gets overlooked a little because it does not have that big center grille bullet that's so iconic on the '49s and '50s. Car wise though, the '51 is just a better car in my opinion.
