Canadian Coil Box Brass Switch Plate Replicas 1913-1915, any interest for Canadian/Australian/New Zealand model T’s?
I’ve had a couple of guys ask about replication of these plates. I own an original to copy. I can look into doing these if there’s enough interest. Hopefully it’s as successful as the 1912 data plates. Note that these always say Ford, Ontario. I’ve never seen a “Walkerville” example and doubt that they actually existed. The one I have was on my early 1913 from a very early age. Probably because the wood coil box/coils could have failed very soon in my car’s life. I’ll post a photo later today. Cheers!

I'd be interested in a Canadian coil box switch cover plate for my 1915. The one i have is in pretty good shape, but i'm open to the possibility of a better one.

I contacted RV regarding the Canadian plates. He has not made them but is willing to assist in having them made. If I can get 15 - 25 interested, we may be able to get these made at an affordable price. I will also put a post on Facebook to generate some further interest. Let’s see what happens. RV tells me these never had a black background but a brass background with raised lettering. Here’s a photo of my original. Thanks for your interest in advance!

Just an FYI, It may take 3-4 weeks to get a price quote. I've already sent my original to the USA to get the plates done, but we'll get the quote first so we all know what they will cost.
Cheers,
Darren

I have pricing for a run of 50 plates. If I proceed, the plates will be $35.00 in US dollars each. I think we have 35 or 36 interested so I feel this is worth doing. These plates do not have black painted background, they will be etched as my original is. See pic above.
If you have not already expressed interest there’s still time to place an order. You MUST provide me with your mailing address, email address, and phone number. This will indicate to me you’re sincere about participating.
If you have already provided me with the above info, I’ll let you know when I have a turnaround time. When the time comes I’ll inform you of costs with shipping.
Thanks for your interest!
