Default Great information

Thanks from my part Robert! It would appear that M-H supplied the NPC direct, although whether the Ford chassis were sourced from Windsor, and thus the complete vehicle from the Canadian subsidiary is a point of discussion. Ford have always maintained that there were no rhd US Fords after the Model T, until the Taurus although rhd Lincolns were produced pre-1942 at least. That said did M-H convert the basic Ford chassis with rhd steering components? One answer is whether the engine installed in Australian M-H chassis are US-sourced or Canadian [different serial numbers of course]. Can you assist here please Robert? Hanno? The problem here is that engines may have been transplanted several times.

Nuyt, can we agree that in the absence of any official Ford subsidiary that there would have been one of the private companies that you mentioned that would have handled preparation and delivery from the docks?
