"Rumble Seat Coupe"
Henry Ford spent most his first years fighting off the idea of changing the Model T which produced and sold over 15 million models 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 production of the Model T and began retooling the entire factory to begin its new and improved version, the Model A. They completed this process in almost 6 months and had cars pumping out quickly which was only possible due to Edsel secretly marshaling the design and sketch team to begin working on the new model prior to Henry ever even approving such a change.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1931 Ford Model A Rumble Seat Coupe for your consideration. With a black exterior and brown LeBaron Bonney interior, this car shows well and is a head turner. The chrome remains in excellent condition. It rides on 19 inch black wire wheels with nearly new tires mounted on it. It has etched glass wind visors and presents well. The Model A still retains it's factory Autolite heater pipe off of the manifold. It also has aftermarket turn signals, dual cowl lamps. This car runs and drives as it should. The purchaser will leave our showroom with a show winner, a great drive, a head turner, and a piece of history. Call or email for more information.
