1929 Ford Model A Tudor
VIN: 7031008467
Odometer: 04871
Engine: 200cid (3.3L) I4
Trans.: 3-spd Manual
The Ford Model A replaced the venerable Model T in late 1927. When production ended in March, 1932, more than 4.8 million Model A's had been built in a variety of body styles. Production in 1928 and 1929, each, topped over 1.5 million vehicles. The only thing that "slowed" Model A production was the Great Depression.
Since the Model A was so numerous, it's easy to see why it's considered one of the easiest cars to own. The aftermarket for these vehicles includes everything from parts to whole bodies. Leading the way is the Model A Tudor sedan.
Equipped with a 200cid, inline 4-cylinder engine producing 40hp, the Model A doubled the power output of the Model T. A sliding-gear, 3-spd transmission was mated to the engine and drove a three-quarter floating rear axle. Simply put, the Model A was a great improvement without a huge cost increase.
This two-family 1929 Ford Model A came out of an Oregon estate of the third owner of the vehicle (his father handed it down to him). After WWII, the father had originally purchased another Model A and when he arrived to pick that one up, the seller told him this one came with it for "spares." Apparently, the body had been cut-off at the back seat, and a small truck bed installed. Since it still ran, the family used it on the farm, like so many others have done. As time went on, the car fell into disrepair and was stored in the barn.
In the early '60's, a son came across a complete body at a swap meet for $15, and he put the body in his garage along with some spare parts for future use. Around 1969, the dad was getting on in years but wanted a Model A project to keep himself busy. Putting two and two together, the son offered the body, to put on the old chassis in the barn, and a project was born. Dad and sons performed a complete restoration of this car before dad passed in 1974. The car was used by the family farm for awhile and then stored back in the barn.
Today, five-decades later, this 1929 Ford Model A Tudor is still in great condition. The paint shows well but does have chips and scars associated with its age. The patina is forming and adds to the character of the car. The interior and upholstery are very nice and ready for passengers. The engine turns over, but our techs have not had time to get it running yet. The transmission engages when rolled and we have confidence it will work properly with a running engine.
With that said, a new owner, interested in an easy project, may find this to be a great deal. Call us and find out!
