Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1929 Ford Model A Roadster
Pick-Up for your consideration. The truck is powered by a
smooth-running 3.3L I4 that is mated to a 3-speed manual
transmission. This beautiful piece of history appears to have the
proper engine and transmission for this era.
The red over black fenders exterior creates a wonderfully classic
look. Although the exterior is beautiful, so is the interior. With
its classic cream spoke wheels including the spare on the side, the
wonderfully designed fenders sliding along the side into its
running boards then back again to fenders painted in gloss black,
there isn't a bad angle to this great ride! The wood bed also
features wooden bed rails.
Now is your chance to own a wonderful Model A that is all steel and
in great working condition. Please call or email today with any
questions or for additional information.
The Ford Model T had dominated the automotive market from the
mid-1910s through the early 1920s but started to erode as
competitors began catching up with Ford's successful mass
production system. It had become apparent to most in the company
that it was time to begin a new model, but Henry Ford was
resistant. With "luxury" features coming out such as electric
starters in most of General Motors products, newer exterior designs
fit the era they were entering, Ford was forced to compete and
began their Model-A design. At first, Henry did not want to worry
about looks or features but to spend their energy on the mechanical
aspects which had been the primary reason for success on their
Model T. Although many improvements with the engine power and
overall stability were improved, it proved to be short of what was
necessary, a new cosmetic appeal. For this Henry called upon his
son, Edsel, who showed how successful it could be with his design.
After years of compliments on its curb appeal, Henry started to
take credit for it himself although his son was more hands-on with
this project. The era of mass production had officially passed and
the era of "flexible mass production" had begun and regardless of
who was more responsible for this model, Ford, in general, showed
once again how well they could adapt and stay on top.
