The oldest one

[ratamahata]

I've always wondered: Is there any survivor of the early models A?, I remember seeing a thread a while ago, showing pictures of an early chassis...
Someone knows a model A with the lowest date that still with us today?

Mike Gooding in Wilder, ID has a roadster with serial number A241. He, his dad Fred (now deceased) and Doc Kalinka restored it many years ago and it is in a showroom/shed at Mike's farm. I had the pleasure of seeing it a couple of years ago. There are many items on it that I had never seen before. When I think I am having a tough time finding parts for my late 28 and 29 A's, I think how much harder it would be to restore a very early 28 (really a 1927) A.
