The Stars "28" and "29" are commonly named A-28/A-29, but curiously at the beginning they were also badged this way - with letter "A". It is hard to find till when exactly it was like that, for sure there wasn't letter "A" anymore on badges in mid-70s.
Like for now I renamed to A-28/A29 only the earliest ones with divided windshild (1968-ca 1970). Other have A-28/A-29 set as "chassis code" (except some specialist chassis for tippers, cranes etc., which were marked with different letters).

Generally eg. in brochure from the end of 70s "A" is to see only in names of "empty" chassis-cabs made to be bodied by 3rd parties (chassis A-200), but in case of early A-28/A-29 it was name also of standard factory versions with load box made from trapezoidal metal sheets.
