Ford dealers did not then nor do they now have direct access to Ford's parts depots (distribution centers), but they could order the parts if they were stocked by Ford. In the case of the Canadian and U.S. operations, likely the stocking of RHD parts was confined to one or two parts depots with access to ocean shipping, likely one on each coast. We tend to think of RHD vehicles in the context of the United Kingdom, the British Commonwealth countries and Japan, but during the subject period, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Sweden were RHD countries as well.


Yes, both tail lamps would have been the same. While not offered by Ford, a red glass lens for the opening in the tail lamp housing for the license plate light in the second lamp not needing illumination of the license plate was available in the aftermarket. Originals of those red license plate light are somewhat scarce.


And yes, all '32 deluxe roadsters had rumble seats as standard equipment.
