1930 Ford Model A

Description

The Ford Model A is one of those perfect hobby cars that can bring in any enthusiast without much barrier to financial or skill level. This 1930 model is the perfect example with easy affordability and drivability packaged in a car with plenty of potential.

The tudor sedan is one of the best ways to enjoy the Model A. The fully enclosed cabin is part of what really made the Model A a leap over the Tin Lizzy, but it does not lose its iconic presence that symbolizes the dawn of the automotive age. The brown and black paint look driver quality, and that's a compliment on a car like this. After all, you'll get the more credit from other enthusiasts the more it looks like you keep this old-timer on the road. Plus, the body is amazingly super straight and all the trim pieces are complete. This is a good thing because the Model A was all about adding style. From the bright grille and headlights up front to the luggage rack and trunk hanging off the rear.

Open the door and you'll see the seats, door panels, and headliner have been refreshed recently with a period-correct mohair appearance. Everything feels authentic from the classic four-spoke steering wheel to the bright instrument panel. There's even been turn signals added to the car for an extra touch of practicality. No one has tried to ruin this time machine with aftermarket parts like air conditioning. Instead, this thoroughly correct interior means raising the front windshield and rolling down the side windows to get your ventilation the way your family did a few generations ago.

Ford's 200 cubic inch four cylinder engine looks thoroughly original in the engine bay. This motor is all about torque, and the over-achieving little machine makes a distinctive sound that's been beloved for generations. It happily pulls this tutor around without working too hard and cruises at 45 MPH, so it's not a problem on modern surface streets. The 3-speed manual transmission shifts cleanly with a quick double-clutch and the brakes are effective for a vehicle with modest performance and light weight.

A quality Model A like this one can be a ton of fun, especially when they run well and don't cost a fortune. It's time for a piece of history that you can proudly drive every Sunday. Call today!!!
