While the early 1940s were a turbulent time for the U.S. and the rest of the world, some stunning cars were produced during the period. This era of cars is characterized by their streamlined and more aerodynamic looks while retaining separate fenders and plenty of chrome. Design was king, and the sought-after Ford Convertibles are known for their good looks and ever-increasing value among collectors.

Ford’s Model A may not have been as trailblazing as the legendary Model T was, but it’s no less important in the history of the Blue Oval brand. When the Model T was due for retirement, Ford knew that they had a mammoth task in succeeding it with a worthy successor. The successor was the Model A. So how successful was it? Well, in its production run between 1927 and 1931, 4.85 million examples were sold! That’s pretty successful, we’ve got to say. Model A owners could choose from coupes, convertibles, sedans, pickup trucks and some commercial oriented body styles as well. Plus, the Model A was made in multiple countries across the globe, apart from the United States, of course. Now, finding a Model A these days is a little difficult because not many are around – we’re talking about a car that would be nearly a century old! Thankfully, we have an old stalwart from Meridian, Idaho right here. This 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Coupe comes with a 201ci four-cylinder, a 3-speed manual transmission and a two-tone blue exterior. Plus, it’s got under 15,000 miles to its name.
