We are very pleased to offer this final year 1931 Ford Model A
Rumble Seat Roadster finished in classic Chicle Drab with Copra
Drab belt accents over Black fenders, Straw yellow wire wheels and
body pinstripe! Features include its original 201.5ci Inline
4-cylinder engine, 3-speed transmission, rear mounted spare tire,
carpeted interior floor mat, twin outside rearview mirrors, glass
wind wings, beveled interior rearview mirror, electric wiper motor,
Sparton horn, stainless steel grill guard, dual cowl lights &
Duolamp taillights, rear fender steps for entry to the rumble seat,
Firestone 4.75/5.00-19" gum-dipped black wall tires, and more!
This particular example was fully restored by a prominent Michigan
Ford restoration expert approximately 23 years ago. The body and
frame were fully disassembled and properly painted or powder coated
respectively, then reassembled with all new stainless steel
mounting hardware and new wiring harness. The engine was overhauled
to include a valve job, Brumfield 5.9:1 high compression head, all
new insert bearings, pistons & rings, gaskets; Float-a-Motor engine
mounts, Leakless ball bearing water pump, rebuilt Zenith carburetor
with sediment bowl filter, new distributor & heat shield, 12-volt
alternator conversion, 4-blade cooling fan, heavy-duty radiator,
engine oil filtration system, Air Maze air filter, modern Bendix
starter, and complete stainless steel exhaust system.
The brakes are all brand new with a hydraulic system upgrade, as is
the entire suspension system with rebuilt steering system including
shorted pitman arm, new grease fittings and bushings throughout!
The transmission was completely overhauled with new internal
components, new clutch & pressure plate, and resurfaced flywheel.
The rear differential was treated exactly the same with a full
overhaul with new ring & pinion, all applicable bearings, hub seals
& gaskets, and fresh installation hardware, driveshaft universal
joints, torque tube gaskets, etc. The engine has traveled only
2,600 miles since completion and continues to run wonderfully! The
all-new Brown leather interior, vinyl covered rear rumble seat,
seat cushions, convertible top and side curtains/door irons were
all supplied from LeBaron Bonney and continue to appear as new! The
column-mounted auxiliary gauges read oil PSI and water temperature
making for a great touring accessory!
It was finished professionally with new stainless steel bumpers
front & rear, radiator shroud, door handles, hubcaps, any
applicable mounting hardware, engine support rods & hood prop set!
The finished result makes for a highly decorated and very drivable
example! Ready for parades, outings across town, or confident
weekend touring! It has been parked indoors, serviced as needed,
and is now ready to be pasted on to a new owner. You will be
impressed with this Model A no doubt! It will come with many
restoration photos, parts documentation, and workshop manuals.
Please take a look at the pictures and feel free to call with any
questions or to schedule an inspection to see it in person! A great
Ford investment that we are sure will not last long!
