Vehicle Description
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1929 Ford Model A Tudor
Sedan. This Model A has been in the same family since 1970 in
Athens, Georgia. When the current owner's father purchased it for
$400, it was in complete running and driving condition but a little
rough cosmetically (as it was already over 40 years old). The
family enjoyed it for several years and the kids would take it out
and run around town when their parents weren't home, sometimes
breaking down and getting into trouble.
It was restored to a nice standard in the mid 1980s which included
paint, body, interior and drivetrain overhauls. The fenders were in
poor condition, and at the time only fiberglass reproductions were
available - so that is what were used. The body is otherwise
original steel.
Recent service includes new tires, tubes, transmission rebuild,
steering gear rebuild and fuel tank refurbishment. The restoration
has held up well and the grey finish with blue and yellow (straw)
accents is attractive. It has been maintained with an eye towards
driveability, seeing occasional use around town and chauffeuring
two daughters from their weddings.
The bill of sale from the 1970 purchase is included along with a
bound service bulletin. A good running, attractive driver quality
Model A at an approachable price point with a great story. For more
information about this 1929 Model A for sale at Motorcar Studio in
Atlanta, please call 404-692-5250.
