Ford’s Model T paved the way for modern motoring in the turn of the century. Then, the Ford Model A arrived in 1927 and built further on its successes. Despite being made for just four years, Ford happily sold over 4.8 million units with various body styles. The Model A brought more power, performance and a conventional arrangement of pedals to the party. It also offered body styles such as the phaeton, which we have got here in the shape of this 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton. Up for sale in Mathews, North Carolina, this 4,872-mile machine comes with a 201ci four-cylinder engine and a 3-speed manual transmission. It’s also got a reupholstered interior, a car cover, and numerous extra parts and tools included with the sale.
Exterior and Interior
Sitting pretty on a set of powder-coated wire spoke wheels with whitewall tires and a matching spare on either side (that’s two spare wheels for you), this 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton wears a Washington Blue coat of paint. You can see that it’s a four-door phaeton variant, with an open-air body style and very little weather protection, just like a traditional horse carriage. However, there is indeed a full-length tan-colored canvas roof for some protection, but the car looks at its best with this roof folded down. Beneath the bodywork sits a factory Ford Model A ladder frame chassis. The interior of this 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton is very exposed as you may glean. It comes in brown and can accommodate even six adults if you please, thanks to front and rear bench seats. As for creature comforts, there are none. Don’t expect heating, let alone air conditioning, or even an AM radio, let alone Android Auto. Instrumentation is also minimal, as was common way back in the day.
Engine
This 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton has a 201ci 4-cylinder engine with a single-barrel updraft carburetor. It’s paired with a 3-speed manual transmission and drives the rear wheels. You’ve also got transverse leaf spring suspension, a 6-volt electrical system and mechanical drum brakes. All this means that you’ve got to drive this 95-year-old car with care. Just slow down and enjoy life in it.
