Re: How were the engines numbered?
The stamping of engines at the Rouge wasn't just "stamping" them then patting them on the ass and sending them on their way...there was a major process the Ford Motor Company went thru that is quite interesting.
It is to long to print it here so I am going to give you the location and ACC Numbers to get these documents if you wish.
The Benson Ford Research Center and Archives...Acc. 479, Box 1, Vol. 1, and Vol 3.
It is titled "Ford "A" and "AA" Motor Control" and "Automobile Motor Records".
These are dated April 25, 1929, May 14, 1929, October 14, 1930, and March 16, 1931.
