I looked at JS for the subtle differences of the shelves & then checked my Canadian late '29 which is mostly original & with a complete known history.
It has the '28 style shelves with fuller curves at the chassis horns ; '28 type front splash apron without the top bead edge ; '29 style bonnet/hood clip pockets [pointed] & solid '28 type hood clips. Also Canada did not use the '29 type rad. shell with the 'bell'shape around the crank hole ;they did have the larger holes for the Twolight type headlamps however. Just shows that Ford at the various factories put on what was at hand to get the cars out. Cheers.
