From copies of period invoices [ Legendary Model A by P. Winnewisser & D. Rehor The 1932 Ford Book] & my knowledge of Ford Canada during that era, cars could vary in interior & exterior colours/appointments during a production run & whatever it was when you purchased, that is what you got. Special tailoring to the customer would have been the domain of the Dealer by way of accessories available & approved by Ford. Also, some paint changes could be made to attract the buyer or satisfy them. This was done sometimes here in NZ with wheels & added highlight colours but basic colours were Canadian & were rotated throughout the year by the factory; ie. no real special options at any given time. I do not think any system of ordering any variation from standard production existed in that era, as we understand today. The bodybuilders were working to a very tight margin set by Ford & Ford was probably the best value along with the service network, in the market in that era. Tailor made cars were in the high price bracket. Cheers
