Dave,

Over the hears I've had a total of seventeen '33-'34s. Of those, only the 5-window coupe shown in my earlier photo was of Canadian origin.. All the rest wee manufactured in the main in the U.S., six for domestic sale and ten exported. Of the ten, I imported four from Brazil (LHD) and six I imported from Argentina (RHD). All six of those Argentine cars had two battery access holes in the floor (one on the left for V8s and one on the right for fours). In other words, both Canada and the U.S. made both types of floor pans for their vehicles destined for RHD countries (and evidently sometimes by mistake).
