1953 'AMBASSADOR'
Certainly looks like the "E" minus the band of course. It's possible that the case shape is the variant.
I'm good with the E....
Ambassador "E"... case cleaned up nice, the dial looks good, all you need is a seconds bit and your ready to go Mark. Nice one!
I'm good with two ticks for the "E". Kinda a grainny ad for detail like lugs etc....but close enought for two ticks.
better picture.

Yep its a better picture, but not a better picture of the "E" variant Fifth uses in root record ad. Root record ad is from 1953. Ad above is 1955.
I'm changing my ticks from two (tentative) to three.
