My Father and some other Marines bought a Model A for $40 to use on liberty in about 1943 in California. When it was time to continue their tour of the Pacific, they parked it on the beach and left! I guess that would have been in San Diego.
The abandoned Model A story really bugged me when I was young. I wanted that car!
