The difference between Chevy 150 and Bel Air

How can you tell the difference between '56 Chevy 150 (2dr) and Bel Air if there is no name tags (not sure what is the correct term for it) on the body.

Is there a website you can recommend for accurate photos.The searches I tried were a bit confusing,especially with the chrome stripes on the side.

The 150 was the botton of the range eg rubber mats no stainless trim but the body shape on all was the same
The Belair was the top model fitted with stainless trim
All the body shapes could be bought 2 door sedan 2 door hardtop and 4 door in a 150 model 210 model and Belair
