Look at the information on the Hollister cars from engine stamping to sale dates

PM me with that information and maybe we can figure out a more true date.

Thanks Steve -

Good to hear from you again. On your Plant study for SFA, you have the car on page 12 with the side note of #3 as a credit for the information I sent you.

At that time I sent you a copy of the original California Pink Slip - the new registration for the Coupe specifically showing date of delivery as Oct. 11, 1930. Revisiting that information and the rest of the study for cars going to Hollister Ca. from SFA, I would love your input as to the actual, or as close as possible, to the true build date.

I am now wondering if the car was indeed a "special order" due to the close proximity in timing of the engine build date and the true sales date - August to October 1930. The SFA build number (body stamping ) is - SFA 11538.

Thanks again for all your efforts and interest for all of the "A"'s out there -

Be well -

Chris
