1930 Ford Model A Roadster

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this elegant 1930 Ford Model A Roadster for your consideration. It is powered by its 3.3L inline-4 motor which is paired with a manual transmission. The motor fires right up, idles smooth, and gets this iconic classic Ford going down the road. This example is in great condition and has been well maintained. An oil change was completed on May 21, 2021. Zinc was added during this oil change to further reduce friction of metal components within the motor. Also, the selling owner notes that a lead substitute was always added to the fuel.

This time capsule is finished in an olive green exterior over a brown leather interior. The yellow/cream wheels wrapped in white wall tires provide an excellent accent to the exterior appearance. With clean paint, beautiful brightwork, and a clean soft top, this is a beautiful example that even has a fun rumble seat. The selling owner notes they have owned the vehicle for the past three years and has been kept under a cover during their ownership.

Henry Ford spent many years fighting off the idea of changing the Model T of which over 15 million models were produced and sold before his son, Edsel, finally convinced him that some new features and comforts were necessary. On May 25th, 1927, Ford announced the shutdown of the plant and began retooling the entire factory to begin production of the new and improved vehicle, the Model A. They completed this process in 6 months and had cars pumping out quickly. This quick shift was only possible due to Edsel secretly marshaling the design and sketch team to begin working on the new model prior to Henry Ford approving such a change.
