Overview of 1929 Ford Model A Roadster For Sale by Owner

Ford’s Model T was such a runaway hit that they had to really knock it out of the park with a successor. Cue up 1927’s Ford Model A, of which over 4.8 million were sold by 1932. The Model A brought about many improvements, including a 3-speed gearbox, a top speed of over 65mph which was positively dizzying in those days, and the traditional layout of clutch, brake, accelerator pedals from left to right. Very few will know that a Model T also had three pedals but with totally different arrangements. Finding a Model A in pristine order is still tough, but we’ve got an appealing 1929 Ford Model A Roadster for sale today. Coming from Natick, Massachusetts, this car boasts 90,000 miles and looks in great condition for something that’s just four years shy of its Centurion birthday.

Exterior and Interior

Ford offered the Model A lineup with several body styles, including a coupe, sedan, phaeton, pickup truck, station wagon and a roadster. This 1929 Ford Model A Roadster is of the last type in our admittedly non-exhaustive list. Sporting a clean coat of black paint, it’s a perfect embodiment of 1920s motoring, right down to features such as the large, podded headlamps, running boards, dual side-mounted spare wheels, Firestone whitewall tires, and luggage rack with trunk case. The wire wheels have been painted black as well, and this car sports an external rumble seat or “mother in law seat” too. As for weather protection, there’s a black manually operated convertible top, but this doesn’t cover the rumble seat. The interior of this 1929 Ford Model A Roadster comes with a woodgrain steering wheel. Of course, there’s no digital distractions or even a modicum of today’s creature comforts, as they simply hadn’t been conceived at the time. You’ll probably have spied an interesting item atop the radiator grille; when you sit in the driving seat its purpose becomes clear – it’s a water temperature gauge, mounted atop the radiator and thus getting a direct reading from the engine’s coolant.

Engine

The engine that moves this 1929 Ford Model A Roadster is a 201ci L-head four-cylinder unit, and it drives the rear wheels through a 3-speed sliding mesh manual gearbox. The engine uses a single carburetor and was rated for 40 horsepower – which once again, was really sporting in its heyday. However, given the car’s age, we’d advise against trying to test out its top speed, but rather settle for a gentle cruise.
