The Ford Barn

I have a friend who told me this AM that he is selling his 1929 STANDARD Phaeton. I asked the difference between a standard and deluxe. He said "the Deluxe only had 2 doors". I told him that only applied to the 1930 & 1931 Deluxe Phaeton. NOW, was there ever a 1929 Phaeton designated as a Deluxe. I am sure that those who added cowl lights and a right side tail light would then call it a deluxe, but I don't think they were ever a "factory" option. Am I correct or is my memory failing? I know, I am "nit-picking", just curious. He also told me that the 1928 Phaeton only had front doors, & was not a Fordor. WRONG ?????

Thanks, Don
