If CKD means "Completely Knocked Down", I have to think that SKD would mean
"Sorts Knocked Down".  :)

John,
Very interesting. Thanks for the rundown on CKD cars.  Excuse me but  what
is 
SKD?  I am going to say that CT5521LO is indeed that with no 1  before the 
commission #.  The plate has the appearance of being original to  the car.
The 
Heritage Certificate says "Dispatched to Belgium". I received  a letter of 
apology from them referring to the car as CKD with no body #  recorded.  
The story behind the original owner was that he was a USA serviceman
serving 
overseas and the car was shipped from Belgium to Florida, USA for the  Tax 
advantages. Any truth to that?
Thank You,
Darrell
