Re: Model A car names
I call my '30 Town Sedan " George" for my good friend who owned it for many, many years. George and his college buddy landed a job one summer in the fifties on the Alaska Railroad and drove the car from Indiana to Alaska and back. They had major engine problems at one point along the way so George stayed with the car for two weeks while his buddy hitch hiked to Dawson, I believe it was, to order parts from the lower 48. They rigged a piece of plywood from on top of the rear seat back to the dash and one slept there while the other drove. The rest of the car, inside and out was stacked high with tires, parts, tools, luggage, food, fuel, etc. RIP George.
