The Ford Model A was manufactured between 1928 and 1931 and was
the second huge success for Ford after its predecessor. the Model
T. The Model A was offered in a wide variety of body styles and was
the first Ford to incorporate the standard set of driver controls
with a conventional clutch. brake pedal. accelerator and gearshift.
The engine was a water cooled in-line four cylinder arrangement
with a capacity of 3. 3 litres. With a conventional three speed
gearbox. (plus reverse). the top speed was around 65mph. Stopping
was by four wheel drum brakes operated by rods. The 1930 and 1931
models were offered with exterior door handles. stainless steel
radiator cowlings and headlight housings.

This rare two-door Phaeton Deluxe is one of only four on these
shores and one of only 165 remaining worldwide. presented in
immaculate Washington Blue with Riviera Blue beltline and Tacoma
Cream strip and wheels. this body style number 180A was produced in
1930 and 1931 only. The Model A was hugely popular when released
with no less than 28 variants but our vendor sought out the rarer
two-door example from the United States before finally importing in
January 2015.

Described. and quite rightly. as a trailer queen when purchased
having been completely restored to a very high standard some 40
years ago. the car was transported from concours event to event
over a 30 year period covering a mere 200 miles (presumably just
positioning the car). It was then sold to the next enthusiastic
owner in River Falls. Wisconsin and he covered around 700 miles
before it headed to the UK where it has spent the summer receiving
numerous awards on the show field including best in show at Sam
Beare Hospices classic car show here at Mercedes-Benz world. The
flat head four 40HP engine runs impeccably and the car
presents every bit as impressively as it would have when restored
with a nice warm garage to thank for that. At a cost of $640
when new and costing its previous owners considerably more to bring
this example to the standard seen here today. fully UK registered
combined with many invites to the shows it graced this summer. what
a fantastic opportunity to own a car that quite rightly will turn
heads and gain accolades wherever you may take
her.
