What's this, from when - for 1 point?

Google Image Search continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Image Search as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

Strange.  The bumper and C pillar design of the dark car, is different from the original, light-colored puzzle image.

Maybe they built 2 examples of this car?  Both images seem to be of a 4-seat Callista.

(Online source indicate the dark image was from 1950, the light car from 1952.)
