The Ford Model A gave mobility to millions of Americans, picking up right where the Model T left off. Over four million cars were made over just five production years, spanning 1927 to 1931. Today, it’s not that easy to find a Model A, as the cars quietly fell unused – nobody expected them to become classics, after all. However, if you want a Model A that’s got a few interesting enhancements to make it better for regular driving, check out this 1930 Ford Model A Restomod. Having undergone a full frame-off restoration, the car is a true beauty to behold, in hot-rod style, no less. It’s got a mere 1,600 miles since the build, and is ready for a lifetime of adventures. Do you dare to take it on, turn heads wherever you go, and enjoy every single drive? Read on…
This 1930 Ford Model A Restomod has been painted in a stunning Candy Apple Red coat, and rolls on a gleaming set of shiny five-spoke alloy wheels. The car features front and rear fenders plus running boards for that quintessential '30s look. Those alloy wheels wear suitably meaty tires, highlighting the fact that this 1930 Ford Model A Restomod is packing some serious firepower. Actually, some of that firepower is proudly on display at each side of the hood. The interior of this 1930 Ford Model A Restomod features a new African Wood dashboard, leather seats, alligator-style trim, new gauges, a custom steering wheel, and a tilt steering column. You’ve also got a retro-modern Ford-branded radio adorning the center console of this 1930 Ford Model A Restomod, and we find some speakers installed within the door panels. This is truly a hot rod with pizzazz!
This 1930 Ford Model A Restomod gets it mojo from a new LS1 350ci V8 with a Z06 cam and headers, driving the rear wheels via a 700R4 automatic gearbox and a Jag rear end. So, you’ve definitely got more power than a stock Model A ever came with, and can easily leave billowing clouds of tire smoke should the mood strike you.

Contrary to popular belief, the Model A nameplate didn’t come after the immensely popular Model T. In fact, it preceded it, as the first car Ford ever made. Production ran between 1903 and 1094, with a mere 1,750 cars made. Then, the Model T came over and the rest was history…until it had to be replaced in 1927. Replaced it was…with the Model A, or rather the second iteration of Model A. Here, the Model A brought about many modern attributes. Unlike the Model T’s unusual pedal and gear layout, the Model A had the conventional layout that we see in manual transmission-equipped cars to this day. It also offered multiple body styles. As time passed by, these cars found a new use – as hot rods! Yes, that’s what’s become of this particular 1933 Ford Model A Roadster Hot Rod, with its spicy 383 Stroker, automatic transmission and aftermarket camshaft, plus many other things. With just under 1,200 miles on it since all that makeover work was carried out, this Portland-based car represents something quirky for those who dare.
This 1980 Ford Model A Shay Roadster Replica captures the timeless appeal of the iconic Model A while offering modern drivability and reliability.

With just 8,911 miles showing, this yellow-and-tan example is a well-preserved tribute to an American motoring legend.
Think hot rod, and chances are you’ll come up with something based on a Ford Model A. The Model A, following on from the nomenclature set by the fabled Model T, is a prime candidate for custom builds, just like our featured 1932 Ford Model A Roadster Hot Rod. This car has reportedly been subject to a detailed restoration: a Stage 3 chassis-based build that combines traditional styling with modern engineering. It’s now been fitted with a Chevrolet 350ci V8 coupled to a Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission.
Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.

One of the best ways to experience a classic car is to cruise down in town with a drop-top first-generation Ford Mustang. You’ll be guaranteed to receive smiles, waves and general gestures of appreciation because who doesn’t love a Mustang? Introduced in 1964, the Mustang created a class of car called the pony car, and also facilitated an entire culture of happy, carefree cruising. Drop-top examples like this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible are most facilitative of this culture, and will definitely invoke fond memories from many of those who were around at the time. Heck, even the new generation will love the car’s simplicity and characterful nature. This particular pony is up for sale in Westlake, Louisiana with 7,337 miles on the clock, we’re told.

Ford’s 1932 range was an all-new line-up of three variants, namely Model B, Model 18 and Model 40. Succeeding the successful Model A, the 1932 range was made in many forms, including as a two and four door sedan (Tudor and Fordor in Ford speak), the Deuce two-door coupe which was a name reserved for 1932 models only, a convertible, and even a pickup truck-styled body for load carrying. Today, these Thirties Fords have found a new life as being platforms for some pretty diverse hot rods. Take this South Carolina-based 1932 Ford Model B Dearborn Deuce Roadster Highboy Hot Rod as an example. It’s got a powerful Roush 351 Windsor V8 under the hood, a Tremec gearbox, Wilwood brakes and style that will take your breath away. Talk to us if you’d like to give this 3,649-mile baby a home.
