Harry Shay Founded the "Model A and Model T Motor Car Reproduction
Corporation" also known as "Shay Motors Corporation" in the spring
of 1978. In conjunction with Ford Motor Corporation, Shay set out
to build a limited number or Model A reproduction cars to mark the
50th Anniversary of the car. Shay had a great deal worked out with
Ford as ford waived its design patents so the Shay roadster could
be built, and Ford marketed and sold the Shay Model A through its
Ford Lincoln Mercury dealerships.
This example rides on whitewall tires, has dual cowl lamps, dual
fender spares and a luggage trunk. This example has only 3,500
miles! The Shay was identical to the original in appearance. The
fiberglass body were of such excellent quality, even the keenest
eye could hardly make out the difference. The mechanicals and
suspension were significantly upgraded from the original, giving
the Shay a modern feel and could handle the driving and traffic
demands of the modern day. Today, the Shay Model A's remain very
popular as the more modern mechanics keep them a very usable
classic.
