Nice collection of cars.  I am a Topolino owner and I know outside the USA they don't follow model year but rather date of manufacture. But a 1949 Topolino is a 500B.  But your car does appear to be the body style of a 500C.  So given that, in the USA that would make it a 1950 model year car.  Which in the Topolino world does make a difference.  Up to 1948 they were 500A and '49 was a 1 year  car as they changed from the old motor (500A) to the new motor (same as 500C) but retained the body of the pre. 1948's or the 500A's

So in short, 49 was a transition year, old body new motor. 1950 started new motor new body.
