Ragner and Sally Lindman's 1929 Phaeton. Where is it now? (Henry's Lady Pages 66-68)

[gz]

Here's the story.....

I have owned a lot of neat old cars and a lot of Model As.

The one Model A that has always stood out in my mind is the 1929 Phaeton that was once owned by Ragner (Rags) and Sally Lindman. This car is pictured on pages 66-68 of the great old Model A book "Henry's Lady". Rags and Sally were from Anaheim, California. I grew up in SoCal and got indoctrinated into the old car world when I was a kid in SoCal.

Why does THIS phaeton stand out in my mind, you ask? Well, it was the first Model A I was given a ride in as a kid. I also have fond memories of Rags,Sally and their daughters as they were at every SoCal swap meet selling new and used Model A parts when I was a kid. When I was 16 I had a really bad 1931 pickup and they were so helpful in me getting this truck running and driving. Their encouragement was infectious. They were pivotal people in the SoCal Model A and swap meet world back in the 1980s.

Sally and their daughters drove this phaeton cross country on more than one occasion and her travels were documented in a SoCal monthly publication called Antique Motor News which was published out of Long Beach, Ca and was the old car montly "bible" for those of us in Southern California. We couldn't wait to receive it every month and Sally's articles were one of the reasons. (Their other Model A was a 1931 panel truck called Mr. Goldfield that was also driven across country and written about profusely).

Rags and Sally were such great people, and they are amongst the people I attribute my life long interest-and life long profession-in the old car world. I believe Rags passed away a couple of years ago and I do not know if Sally is still alive.

Does anyone know who owns THIS phaeton now? Obviously, I would like to be considered as a buyer if this car would ever become for sale.

Does anyone else remember Rags and Sally Lindman?? It would be fun to hear some stories....
