I would like to see that also.
Ford Canada had different pricing than in US. Bumpers & spare wheel tyre were not considered éxtras' & were included in price & std. equipment.
I know my Canadian Tudor, was 240 NZ Sterling in late 1929 which may have equated [ approx.] to about $US 500 then, but do not quote me. On top of that were the ón road costs [ plate & rego] which were not expensive.
From what I can see, anywhere that used local content in assembly [ Australia & Europe] the selling price rose, often making the common Ford pricey, especially in Europe. Australian Model A's were a bit more in cost to buy than here in NZ from my calculations.
