Vehicle Description
The Ford Model A replaced the Model T and was produced from 1928 to
1931. The Model A became Ford's second market success. Model As
came in various configurations, including a truck chassis that also
included delivery vehicles.
The Model A engines were a water-cooled L-head in-line four with a
displacement of 201 cu in (3.3L). This engine generated 40
horsepower with a top speed of about 65 mph. The Model A had a
103.5 in wheelbase with a drive ratio of 3.77:1. The transmission
was a conventional unsynchronized three-speed sliding gear manual
with a single speed reverse. The Model A had four-wheel mechanical
drum brakes.
This particular Model A delivery vehicle has been through a full
ground up restoration and features a unique, fresh paint in dark
blue and black with striking red pin stripe and accent lines. This
Model A also includes extensive graphic artwork and gold-leaf. The
featured floral basket was copied from an original 1929 oil
painting and the FTD livery on the back two door panels was
extensively researched and reproduced to match the correct time
period.
Estimate: $25,000 - 30,000
