 Well, I own an original 444A, 1947.  It is LHD.   The 444A was produced from 1944 to 1948, according to Volvo's archivist.  All those cars were designated as 1947 year model at some point.  My car was certified off the line in early 1948, one of the last A models produced (Volvo archives).  This car was brought to the US only about 7 years ago.  As far as I can determine, it is the only '47 444A in the U.S.  J. Ansley, CA, USA
