Overview of 1929 Ford Model A For Sale by Owner

What we have here today is an icon of the icons, the Ford Model A. It marked a turning point for Ford by taking a giant leap over its predecessor, the Model T. The 1929 model year, from which our subject example is, was one of the standout years for the American company. Over 1.5 million units were manufactured that year alone. It gained nicknames like the "A-bone" by hot-rodders and was often called a "Baby Lincoln." Thanks to its simple, sturdy steel body and readily available parts, the Model A is a favorite among Hot-Rod builders. So, if you are looking for a nice foundation for your Hot-Rod project or a classic icon in original condition, look no further. This lovely 1929 Ford Model A comes to you with just 30,213 miles on its odometer. Located in Effie, Louisiana, this Model A is all set to arrive at your driveway.

Exterior and Interior

Compared to the Model T, the Model A took a sleeker look with wider fenders and painted radiator shells. Our subject 1929 Ford Model A is coated in Olive green, while the fenders that flow smoothly from the front to the rear are painted black. This Two-door coupe rides on period-correct wire-spoke wheels that are painted in a contrasting yellow color. The flat windshield is designed to swing open for ventilation. A noteworthy feature is the “Rumble Seat,” providing rear-facing seating in the trunk area for extra passengers. A straightforward interior design is expected from a 1929 classic. Dashboard housed essential instruments on a silver-colored plate. The simplistic four-spoke steering wheel, the long shifter with a wooden shift knob, and bench seating only add to its vintage flair. The rearview had to be added as an option, and luckily, this example has it.

Engine

Power comes from a 201ci (3.3L) inline-four engine, factory-rated at approximately 40 horsepower and 128 lb-ft of torque. Equipped with a Zenith updraft carburetor and a gravity-fed fuel system, the engine delivers simple, reliable operation without the need for a fuel pump. The water-cooled design improves durability over earlier Ford models, while the straightforward layout allows for easy maintenance and serviceability. Paired with a three-speed manual transmission, the Model A’s powertrain offers smooth, usable performance for its era and remains one of the most dependable early automotive engine designs.

1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod

Current Ask
$35,000

This 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod takes one of Ford’s most iconic early body styles and turns it into something far more rowdy. Showing just 470 miles, it blends upright Model A proportions with the ingredients enthusiasts expect from a traditional street rod: a 302ci V8, 4-barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, aftermarket suspension, and a custom exhaust system. What really gives this car its personality, though, is the visual treatment. The Lilac Metallic finish, custom devil and flame airbrush artwork, black vinyl roof, chrome trim, and polished wheels make it the kind of hot rod that stands out immediately rather than trying to imitate a factory restoration. The rebuilt title brand should also be noted.
