Well finally took some pictures of a 1950's AMF Roadmaster Pacemaker. I was told it was from the 50's but not really sure. Has 26" wheels, extra ear on rear drop outs for fenders, quill seat post and Bendix red stripe coaster brake. Can anyone identify the year? Serial # B37972 G , any information would be great.

Yes, it's AMF made, with the forward facing dropouts but straight bar frame, it's late 50's. I'd guess 1957. It's as close to a CWC frame as you can get. The serial number on those bikes, made in Arkansas, don't have a sequence to ID the year that I know of. I've looked and haven't found a sequence. The seat post looks like it's too high and the bottom end bent. It tightens like a handlebar stem. Here's a 57 Luxury Liner:
