The Ford Shay Roadster was a venture involving Shay Motors Corporation and Ford Motor Company in the late Seventies and early Eighties. Founder Harry J. Shay decided to build a limited run of replicas of the 1920s Ford Model A Roadster, wrapping modern mechanicals and underpinnings with a retro body. The vehicles were built in Michigan and sold through Ford’s network of automobile dealers. The model was produced in five body styles, including a pickup truck and panel truck. This example is a 1980 Ford Shay Roadster from Virginia that has just 2,579 miles on the clock and is reported to have been kept in a heated garage.
This 1980 Ford Shay Roadster features a fiberglass body that is clothed in a shade of white known as “Eggshell” that highlights its 1920s profile and design. This car is a drop-top or convertible, with a contrasting black hood that can be lowered. Headlamps, mirrors, grille, and details are chromed, whilst a pair of black-painted horns adorn the front grille. This example comes with 18-inch spoked wheels wrapped in whitewall tires, plus dual front fender-mounted spare wheels with whitewall tires. An externally mounted black luggage trunk is at the rear, which is necessary as the rear portion of the bodywork contains the rumble seat – a boot-mounted seat beneath a cover that is meant for occasional use, as this seat is not covered by the convertible top, and thus the occupants would be exposed to the weather. Keeping in tune with the 1920s exterior, the black interior features period-correct gauges, a bench seat for the driver and front passenger, and a two-spoke steering wheel.
Whilst the body appearance is from the 1920s, the mechanicals are from the Seventies. This 1980 Ford Shay Roadster is powered by Ford’s 140ci (2.8L) four-cylinder gasoline engine that was found in the Ford Pinto, driving the rear wheels through a four-speed transmission. The engine put out 88bhp. The Shay Roadster features the independent front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering gear from the Pinto, as well as disc brakes up front and drums at the rear.

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 1965 Ford Mustang GT helped ignite America’s pony car revolution and quickly became one of the most influential performance cars of the 1960s. Combining sporty styling, compact dimensions, and V8 power at an attainable price point, the Mustang transformed Ford’s image overnight and created an entirely new segment in the automotive world. Showing just 18,813 miles, this example is finished in elegant Vintage Burgundy over a black interior and equipped with the highly desirable GT package, complete with a 289ci V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. With its timeless proportions, unmistakable styling cues, and engaging analog driving experience, this first-generation Mustang GT represents the pure essence of mid-1960s American performance motoring.
This 1993 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 Convertible represents the final production year of the legendary Fox-body Mustang, a platform that helped define affordable American V8 performance throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s. Showing just 34,294 miles, this example stands out thanks to its highly desirable 5.0-liter V8 drivetrain, striking Bright Red over Opal Gray color combination, and classic open-top Fox-body styling. The LX trim remains especially sought-after among enthusiasts for its cleaner, lighter-weight appearance compared to the GT models, while the convertible configuration adds a more relaxed cruising personality to Ford’s legendary pony car formula. Equipped with desirable factory features along with tasteful aftermarket audio and exhaust upgrades, this low-mileage Mustang delivers both collector appeal and unmistakable 1990s character.
This 2000 Ford Mustang GT Deluxe Coupe Supercharged is a heavily modified New Edge Mustang that blends early-2000s street car styling with substantial forced-induction performance. Showing 65,059 miles, this Mustang is finished in Performance Red over a Dark Charcoal interior and has been upgraded with a Paxton NOVI 2000 centrifugal supercharger system along with numerous suspension, braking, and appearance modifications. The New Edge generation Mustang became one of the most popular platforms for customization thanks to its lightweight chassis, durable modular V8, and massive aftermarket support. With its aggressive styling upgrades, supercharged power delivery, and unmistakable late-1990s/early-2000s tuner aesthetic, this GT captures the spirit of the era perfectly.
