550 = ladder frame, 550A = tubular space frame
Also, if I am not mistaken, the 550A had a low pivot rear suspension instead of a true swing axle.
Ditto George & Tom. Shape of nose was different, hood more sloped so lower nose was thinner and flatter. Different tail and running lights. Often had a headrest. Louvered access doors for carbs in rear deck. Rear grilles placed lower down in the rear deck, closer to the tail of the car. Distributors moved from the inlet cams to the nose of the crank. New ZF steering box. Slightly lighter than 550 at 1166 pounds with spare and no fuel.
