1931 Ford Model A Deluxe Tudor

Description

We like the Ford Model A because it's one of those great classics that doesn't discriminate. They can be appreciated by nearly anyone no matter mechanical skill or financial ability. This 1931 tudor sedan is the perfect example of an affordable classic that chugs down the road with ease and gets smiles wherever it goes.

The tudor sedan is one of the best ways to enjoy the Model A. The fully enclosed cabin is part of what really made these a leap over the Tin Lizzy, but it does not lose its iconic presence that symbolizes the dawn of the automotive age. The two tone Thorn Brown and black paint keeps everything period correct, while at the same time, gives this classic a nice impression of sophistication. It's especially when the sunlight hits it to give to two deep colors a true distinction. You can really tell the level of attention that has gone into this Ford by the details like the yellow pinstripe that matches the wire wheels, and the excellent condition of the vinyl roof. But what will really make people take notice are the great details like the all the correct brightwork, sun visor, and trunk attached to the rear. And there are even the dual spare wheels mounted in the fenders for the true Deluxe level luxury.

Open the door and you'll see the seats, door panels, and headliner have been refreshed with a great looking and durable brown pattern cloth. Everything feels authentic from the classic four-spoke steering wheel to the bright instrument panel. You do get a few nice additions like the turn signals, a temperature gauge, and exterior-matching pinstriping on the dash. But no one has tried to ruin this time machine atmosphere with bulky aftermarket parts like air conditioning or a radio. Instead, this thoroughly correct interior means raising the front windshield and rolling down the side windows to get your ventilation the way families did a few generations ago.

The engine has been under the good maintenance of a careful owner/driver. So you have a strong runner that features items like new upper seals and a six-volt alternator. This classic 200 cubic-inch motor is the backbone of the Ford Motor Company, so when it's a runner like this, you feel instantly connected with history with every chug of the exhaust. The torquey engine is great for parade routes and can keep up with traffic around town. The three-speed manual transmission shifts cleanly with a quick double-clutch and the brakes are effective for a vehicle with modest performance and light weight. In total, this 85+ year-old is still a fun runabout.

Great colors, great material, and a great price – this is the right Model A for those people who love driving their history. If that's you, it's time to hurry up and call today!
