I am going by the Ford Australia records which show one Coupe imported.
This information was published in The Restorer mag. [ Model A] in 2010 from an article by Dave Slater who went to considerable trouble to sift thru the era records that Ford Australia allowed him to see.
The Coupe , described as this one [ I have no proof if this is true], is or was recently on display at a car museum in Tasmania of which I have only seen a picture.
We know US Ford bodies have been imported into Australia since the 1970's to satisfy the Rod market, & lately all the ebay sales for original US cars, so anything is possible.
