The Chevrolet Series FA (or Chevrolet FA) of 1917–1918 [1] is an American vehicle manufactured by GM's Chevrolet Division. It was a replacement of the Series F which had improvements in engine capacity as well as other features. In this transformation of series, the pre-existing names of the H and F series cars, The Royal Mail and Baby Grand were dropped in favor of the names Roadster and Touring respectively. The FA Series was then replaced by the Chevrolet Series FB in 1919.[2] Production was not interrupted while the United States entered World War I starting in 1917.
