Model A Standard Phaeton (1930s)
American Passenger Car
The first Ford Model A was manufactured on October 20, 1927, and its mass production and sales began
two months later, in December. The car replaced the well-known Ford Model T, which had been produced
for 18 years. The Model A was equipped with a 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of
3.28 liters and a power output of 40 horsepower. The fuel tank was located between the engine
compartment and the instrument panel and had an optical fuel gauge. Fuel was gravity-fed to the
carburetor. Buyers were offered a wide range of various modifications, with different body types to
choose from: coupe, cabriolet, sedan, phaeton, roadster, pickup, and others. Prices for the Ford A
ranged from $385 to $1,400 (the most expensive being the Town Car variant). Production of the Ford
Model A ended in 1931, with a total of 4 849 340 Ford A cars produced in all variants.
