The lower hull number you have posted, 28765, can be misleading. However a ball park production date is November, 1944. I believe this is likely a British contract, SM 1447, with a serial number in the 29500 -29700 range. There are multiple existing examples in the U.K. with lower hull numbers close to yours. Some of those U.K. examples also have their original data plates in place, making comparison with their information and lower hull number quite helpful for you.

On close inspection, following your lower hull numbers, you should find a smaller font, upper case letter "C" with a line through it.

As a rough guideline, a C31UCW U.C. NO-2 MKII* production number of 27678 is dated 17 August, 1944, on the 40th Anniversary for Ford of Canada.
