This page on the parent site should help you a bit.

Looks like you have a Dodge with a Plymouth engine. Usually there is a casting date on the engine as well which might give you an idea how old the engine is. This is located on the left side down by the distributor. Usually takes a good light to see it. Looks like this motor would be a 218 as well.

The serial number, 31210868, is for a first series 1949 Dodge D24 built at Hamtramck, MI. 1949 numbers ran from 31201087 to 31242628 at Hamtramck and 45041546 to 45045426 at SanLeandro. Production of the 1st series 1949 models began on 1st December 1948 and ended first week of February 1949. Your car was obviously built early in December, 1948.

Chrysler of Canada did not have a 1st series 1949 and ended 1948 production at the end of December, 1948. The plant sat idle until 1949 production began in late February, 1949.
