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.
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.
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.
This 1930 Ford Model A Pickup has been thoughtfully reimagined as a street rod, combining nearly a century-old design with dependable V8 power and modern driving comfort. Showing just 421 miles since its build, this example presents as a fresh and well-executed custom that’s ready to be enjoyed immediately. The classic Model A silhouette remains intact, but underneath, it benefits from a proven Chevrolet 350ci V8 and automatic transmission, making it far more usable in today’s world. With upgrades like power steering, air conditioning, and a refreshed interior, this truck delivers vintage charm without the compromises typically associated with pre-war vehicles.
Ford’s Model A was tasked with taking over the mantle from the wildly popular Model T. Introduced for the 1927 model year, it indeed had a yeoman task ahead, which it admirably tackled and conquered. In just five years, over 4.8 million units found homes. They were made in a variety of body styles including two-door (Tudor) saloons, four-door (Fordor) saloons, station wagons, coupes, taxicabs, delivery vans, convertibles and more. Today, these vintage Fords have found a niche as restomod platforms, as well as of course, the finely-restored true-to-original form vehicles. This 1928 Ford Model A Tudor Hot Rod is of the former, and it’s available in Panama City Beach, Florida. With just under 41,000 miles on it, this car comes with air conditioning, an automatic gearbox, a 350ci V8 and more things that make it easier to drive more often.
The Ford Model A of 1927 to 1931 was the follow-up to Ford’s famous Model T, that had revolutionized mobility across the world, as well as laid the foundations for many of the automotive industry’s assembly line and mass standardization practices. Many of those advances are still in use today. So, the Model A had a pretty lofty reputation to continue, and it admirably did so. Despite just five model years, over 4.8 million were made, across various body styles. The Model A also came with the standard pedal arrangement for manual transmission-equipped vehicles that we know today, unlike the Model T’s unconventional control layout. Today’s 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Hot Rod is quite different from a regular Model T, though. Well, for starters it only has two pedals because this machine packs a 3-speed automatic gearbox. That’s not all, there’s a 350ci V8 under the hood, a custom paint job, and under 15,000 miles on the clock since this machine got an extensive do-over. If you’d like to acquire this funky hot rod, it’s currently sitting in Yorba Linda, California.
The 1959 Ford F-100 represents the final year of Ford’s second-generation F-Series, blending classic 1950s styling with improved drivability and refinement. This example shows just 46,738 miles and presents as a clean, well-maintained truck that retains its vintage character while benefiting from tasteful updates. Finished in an appealing Meadow Green, it captures the charm of late-’50s pickups while offering added usability thanks to features like power steering. With its solid presentation and lightly upgraded mechanicals, this F-100 is an ideal candidate for cruising, shows, or weekend use.
The 1966 Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible is a standout example of classic American open-top motoring, elevated by the presence of a desirable GTA-spec 390ci V8. Showing 11,364 miles on the odometer, this Fairlane blends vintage styling with thoughtful upgrades that enhance both reliability and driving enjoyment. The GTA engine—originally associated with Ford’s performance-oriented Fairlane GT/A models—adds an extra layer of appeal, delivering strong torque and smooth power delivery. Finished in light blue metallic over a blue interior with a white convertible top, this car embodies the spirit of effortless cruising with a performance edge.
The 1973 Ford F-250 Ranger represents the beginning of Ford’s sixth-generation F-Series lineup, a period when durability and simplicity defined the American pickup. This particular truck shows just 53,719 miles and presents as a highly original, well-preserved example of a classic ¾-ton workhorse. Finished in the period-correct Limestone Green Metallic and equipped with the Ranger trim package, it blends utilitarian capability with subtle upscale touches for its time. The addition of a factory-style automatic transmission and 4WD system makes it especially desirable, offering both ease of driving and genuine off-road capability. Trucks like this are increasingly sought after for their honest character, mechanical simplicity, and unmistakable vintage presence.

Vintage Fords seem to take two forms these days. Pristinely-restored classics with true to original form, or wacky hot rods that change nearly everything. Today’s 1939 Ford Deluxe Coupe straddles the line between these two. On the outside, this nice green classic looks pretty stock. Under the skin and on the inside, though, it’s been tastefully upgraded to make it more pleasant to drive, showcase, and enjoy. Now up for grabs in Carnation, Washington with 24,308 miles on the odometer, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a car from the 1930s with modern features such as a sound system, automatic gearbox and heating.
DeSoto is an American brand that you’ve likely never heard of, especially if you were born in the 1970s or later. Formed in 1912, it subsequently became a Chrysler Corporation marque, and was seen up to 1961. Based in Auburn, Indiana, DeSoto was known for creating well-built automobiles, as well as trucks. Today, we have a 1931 DeSoto S-13 for sale from Upland, California. This 109,000-mile vintage car comes with a 6-cylinder engine, a stick shift, and the owner’s manual as well. Hence, its ideal for someone who wishes to collect quirky American vintage cars from defunct brands – and such people are very important because they help preserve long-forgotten bits of our country’s grand automotive history!
