30th Anniversary

[Dave Richards]

Today marks 30 years since the dank and somber February 19th, back in 1980, when our esteemed colleague, Dr. Roger White, took delivery of the very last passenger car-based ambulance produced... a 1979 Cadillac Transport which he personally drove away from Superior Coach's Lima, OH plant and back to his home in Rochester, MN. Shortly afterwards -- and begging Dr. White's indulgence for taking the liberty of sharing it -- this photograph was made during a celebratory reception held to honor the 'new arrival' ... an historic vehicle which marked the end of a professional car era.

A more thorough accounting of this special vehicle's history can be found in Tony Karsnia's wonderfully written article, "A MILESTONE ANNIVERSARY," appearing in the current issue of The Northland Crown Journal ... http://www.northlandpcs.com/2010-1NCJ.pdf

The car looks as good today as it did that day 30 years ago as a direct result of your and Dr. White having taken care to keep it in pristine conditions. Thanks to you both for keeping this piece of history for future generations to see and appreciate......
