71chevy,

Here are some photos of the Body Number stamp on my early 1930 Canadian Standard Phaeton, it appears that the Body was assembled in Detroit.

6=Phaeton F=Detroit

I would be very interested in seeing a picture of the Body Number stamp and where the number is located.

Darryl, Ontario Plant also used ''F'' [ Ford City']. I think there is a difference in letter & numbers size between US & Canada, also the production numbers for any Canadian body style are a lot lower than in US production. I think we have had this discussion before?
 
Sounds like you have a late 30 - early 31 then. Unfortunately, that's probably as close of a guess as you will ever get to make. I would make it a 31. Rarest of the standard phaetons plus if you ever needed to, the front fenders and running boards are so much easier to change on a 31.
 
One other question is the long hinge in front go on top or bottom got rear doors on front don't want to line up right

Tudortomnz,

Thanks for the reminder about the Ontario Plant production of Canadian Bodies, this probably explains why the Canadian Phaeton Body Number stamps are located in the "Wrong" area.

Tom Wesenberg, you must have the weather we had about 10 days ago, snow, sleet, rain, and 25 degrees, summer started about 5 days ago here.
 
Not standing by my car now but I think it's long hinge on bottom. There's also a left and right hinge. Look for a capital L or R on each hinge.
