Does anyone know of a place to decode Canadian
built 1958 plymouths. I have a Suburban built in Windsor
and can't decode the tag. The decoder at Plymouth Central
only works on US built cars... Thanks..

Yes, I can decode Canadian tags. I do not have all the trim codes, but everything else I can do from 1937 through to 1965. (Have no colour codes for pre-1937 Chryco cars - yet.)
