Ford Australia though having imported various components via Canada over the previous years were bound by strict government Acts and regulations that sought tp protect the Australian workers and economy.
Out of this some unique Aussie came about because of our culture and needs.
Ford wasn't the first to do the Sloper style here in Oz.
Ford only produced this body style here for 1939 and 40 only.
If memory serves me right this was our version of the coupe and was referred to as Sedan Coupe.
