Default Re: Totaly "Restored" 1st Sport Coupe sold in San Francisco

The following senario may occured with this car:

The earliest Sport Coupe that I have coming out of the San Francisco Assembly plant was *A6017* which went to Loyalton, CA.



This Sport Coupe, *A151666*...Its engine number was stamped in Dearborn on May 24, 1928 thus it was shipped to the SFA after stamping by boat to be put into a Model A Ford (unknown body at the time).



It took on an average, 22 days for the SFA to receive the engine and get it assembled into a Model A (I am referring to my Assembly plant data for the month of May, 1928).



That being the case, it may have come off the assembly line about June 14, 1928 then it was shipped to the dealer in Oakland to be sold on June 20, 1928.



Interesting.
