The Checker Model A was a produced by Checker Motors Corporation. The Model A was introduced mid-model year in 1939, and was built until 1941, when Checker switched over to wartime manufacturing, as did the rest of the automotive industry. The Model A was offered in a new landaulet version that included an electric disappearing top, and early sunroof. In addition, the new model came equipped with an automatic signal to warn pedestrians that the car was being reversed.
The car came with a Continental L-head inline six-cylinder engine and three-speed manual transmission. As was the case in previous Checkers, the Model A had open front fenders and rear-hinged doors. Headlight lenses were stylized and surrounded by heavy chrome bezels in Art Deco style.
Only one known surviving Model A exists today. It is restored and painted in a maroon and black two-tone finish.
