Re: Doc Kalinka's early 1928 Model A Open Cab Pickup
A241 is in Gooding's Show room; Michael is Fred Gooding's son, he has all of Fred A's, including A354 which is almost completely restored by Michael. Doc helped Fred complete the restoration of A241. Michael knows a lot about the very early A's. When Fred was still with us he made several trips to my home to check out my A1276; the engine went to Assembly on Dec. 3, 1927; the body is by Kentucky Wagon Mfg. Co. of Louisville, KY, it was installed on a passenger car chassis with a 10 leaf "D" rear spring. I just returned from the MAFCA National in SPARKS, NV, out of 20 A's in the restored class A1276 was 3rd with 483.9 points. Note: A1276 is for sale if some one is interested send me a PM.
Thanks,
Ron
