Description
OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE
Ford replaced the long-running Model T with the Model A for 1928, and the new car was a hit, with more than four million built through 1931. Power came from a 201ci inline-four rated at 40 horsepower, roughly double the Model T's output, paired with a three-speed sliding-gear manual transmission. Four-wheel mechanical drum brakes, a safety-glass windshield, and conventional pedal controls modernized the driving experience, and the Model A was offered in a wide range of body styles. The Sport Coupe featured a fabric-covered roof with decorative landau irons.
This 1928 Model A Sport Coupe is finished in a sand hue with black fenders and a cream fabric roof over brown upholstery, and it rides on wire wheels with wide whitewall tires. It is fitted with a side-mounted spares, cowl lights, chrome accents, an outside mirror, and a winged radiator cap ornament.
According to the seller, the car was refurbished in 1999, and they acquired it approximately 20 years ago. The fuel gauge has since been replaced with a float-type unit, and a glass fuel sediment bowl has been installed in place of the original solid unit.
