Vehicle Description
When Henry Ford brought the production of his successful T to a
close, the whole world eagerly awaited the new version to the car
that put America on wheels. This was no small task as the T was
produced for almost two decades with Americans depending on the
reliability and simplicity it offered. The Ford Motor Company
worked hard to ensure that the T's replacement would live up to the
expectations of millions and when the first 4,000 Model A's were
built in December of 1927 they were all snatched up by eager
customers by the end of the month.
The rumble seat sport coupe was at the top of the line for coupes.
They sold new for $530 which equates to roughly $7,277 in today's
time. They came with a soft top that does not fold down. The rear
window does fold up with snaps, allowing you to talk to people
riding in the rumble seat or just enjoy a breeze. The Model A here
has a rear mounted spare with cover as well. The underbody is
beautiful and has been painted as well as the chassis. As you can
see in the photos, all of the nuts, bolts and cotter pins have been
replaced. The chrome is beautiful and shows well both inside and
outside. The balsam green paint remains in great shape as well. The
yellow pinstripe that breaks up the paint scheme accents the body
well. The interior is in immaculate shape and shows very well. The
car rides on Firestone whitewall tires mounted on 21 inch wire
wheels. The engine and surrounding area are beautiful in every
aspect and shows tremendously well. This is truly and investment
grade Model A Sport Coupe that belongs in the finest of collections
or can be enjoyed by any enthusiast.
