Ford's practice back in the day was to finish the serial number off with an F to prevent people from altering the serial number by stamping more numbers on. I know that when I tried to register a very early (1941) 15cwt the provincial registrar would not accept the F.

Nice to find out about the "F" ,any insight into the "TL" Rob ? It looks like they dropped the letters by at least june 41 going by Bill Greg's data plate.
