I have a 1928 Canadian built, RHD sedan that was modified many years ago into a Flower Car for funerals. The work was done in when the car arrived in South America (Uruguay or Argentina) where it was delivered. The car was brought back to Canada about 20 years ago where it got a complete mechanical restoration.

Currently, the car is registered as a 'kit car' since that was the simplest way the previous owner could license the car. In Ontario, Canada it is possible to get ownership papers re-issued provided I have the proper paperwork. A Manufacturer's Statement or Letter of Certification from a National Model A Ford club or organization, confirming the serial number is that of a 1928 Model A Ford and that the serial number has a date of manufacture consistent with the serial number. I have confirmed the engine number has the CA designation for Canada and the number resolves to a manufacture date of May 1928. We have previously rescued other cars like this and have been able to get statements from the Volvo factory in Sweden on a 1968 Amazon wagon and from the Rolls Royce Owners Club in the USA for a 1958 Silver Cloud. I would think that with the huge following for Model A and other early Fords, this should be possible too.

If anyone has any suggestions of where I could obtain such a document, I would appreciate it.
