Hello Mercman and Barn members.
Thanks for relaying the V8-Times article.
I am the proud owner of this car. I confirm it is right-hand drive !
The car was built in Canada most probably Q1 1933, confirmed by RG127 president soon after purchase in 2000.
I try to keep it as original as possible but had to fit repro parts as and when since NOS parts are very difficult to source in Europe.
Happy to share more details to those interested.
Take care

Hi torpedo, I love your 1933 Ford Deluxe V8 Phaeton.
Can you please tell me the Body Number of your car.
This is the location of the Body Number on 1933 and 1934 Ford Cowls
Please add a colour photo of your 1933 Ford to this Thread.
Regards Mercman <><

Hi Trevor,
I have checked both sides of the cowl but there are no numbers stamped on it ;-(



Take care
