The Ford Barn - View Single Post - '36 Cabriolet with an "18-F" prefix

This is a can of worms. My RHD '35 Model 60 (yes, it's a V8-60) is chassis 54-738. I have no idea if my coupe was US, Canadian or Dagenham built.

The Model A in the UK was sold with a small 2 litre engine, because of our taxation system, so that was an AF. If you had a truck it was an AA if it had the 'proper' big engine, but an AAF with the small engine. The 32 Car (Model 18) was sold with a B version of the small engine as ABF, and continued into 1934. Basically the F seems to indicate stuff unique to non-US markets.
