I think i've only heard of one other confirmed california model.  Pretty cool.  I wonder if the california plant did all manufacturing or just assembly.  Studebaker had a plant in california but most of the big parts were build in South Bend and shipped out west for assembly.  My '56 President was made in california.

I believe that both the San Fran and Baltimore operations were just assembly.
