2-tone paint intended to battle Chevrolet's popular hardtop coupe
of 1950.Another new name wasCountry Squire, which referred to the
2-door wood-sided station wagon. All wagons received flat-folding
middle seats at mid-year, an innovation that would reappear in the
minivans of the 1990s. The 1949 and 1950 styling was similar, with
a single central "bullet" in the frowning chrome grille.In the
center there was a red space that had either a 6 or 8 depending if
the car had the six-cylinder engine or the V8.The trim lines were
renamed as well, with "Standard" becoming "Deluxe" and "Custom"

Crest" which appeared on the division's vehicles for many decades
in one form or another. A Deluxe Business Coupe was also marketed.
