How many
Gullwing has one of the original run of 200 pre-A speedsters available.
From 60+ years ago, how many are left? |

Very cool website. I am really impressed with how many still live! With asking prices these days, too bad for all those guys that let one go. Don't ask how I know.

Ha!
That ain't nuthin to be ashamed of. However this is: My poor old '58 original paint Meissen Blue Speedster is having to sit outside cuz I had no garage. I felt so sorry for it. So I sold it... $18,300.00 It still hurts. Oh well! |

From my understanding the pre-a cars (1954 model year) were serial numbers 80001 thru 80200, the a series took over at that point.
Either way I let 80074 and 80159 slip away in the early '90's. If I knew then what I know now ..... such is life |

1954 and 1955 are all pre A (bent windshield on coupe and cab). The A range started with model year 1956.
