    1950 Super Convertible decoding help request

    After a 20 year search (and saving money) I was finally able to purchase a 1950 Super 56C Convertible to enjoy with my dad. I've searched pretty extensively to find trim tag info, but seems there's isn't a great database and folks have good luck on this site with help from others so I figured I'd give it a try.

    VIN: 156I7445

    MOD: 50-56C (Super Convertible)
    STYLE: 50-4567X
    BODY: G 944
    TRIM: 53D
    PAINT: 7
    ACC: ACMD

    Thanks you in advance for the help.
