I was trying to shoot from memory on the actual #'s for both our 39 Mercs. Our sedans Frame # is 1006. the 39 Coupe is 31401. We believe that the coupe was a December 38 production car and our sedan we believe is October 1938. All the glass is bugged 10-38, there are several differences with parts and pieces of our car from the coupe and cars of later manufacture and the sedan has the FORD/MERCURY hub caps which we know were only on the very early cars. So how does one tell the month of manufacture based on those #'s?
