Yes, it's true...noted gangster and bad guy John Dillinger actually did drive a Model
A. We don't know if he bought it or (more likely) stole it, but he had one. He actually used it in gun battles with the police
and in several bank robberies. You can read a lot more about his association with the Model A by clicking on the text
