well utterly depressed i contacted the ford canada archavist in a bid to try and trace my hull and Georges (10128) but unfortunately he drew a blank i really wanted some concrete confirmation on the correct number for my carrier......i am really becoming bitter about it... every time i see a chopped down hull it brings a lump to my throat i only have the above possibility which does not correspond to any batch made by ford, can anyone else advise on a avenue of research i could take ? i have even tried to trace previous owners to no avail... Rob advises that he believes the chap he got the carrier from may be deceased now.
