Ford Roadster Flathead 4 Cyl 1931
General description :
This 1931 Ford Model A Roadster is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. In the late 20’s and early 30’s the Model A was the most popular and best-selling car in America. There was a variation of the model for anyone from a first-time car buyer looking for a deal all they way to a full loaded roadster like this beauty you see before you. This beautiful extremely period correct Model A has been restored back to its former glory with a ton of time spent on the details this is one of the best Roadster’s I have seen. Taking 3 years to complete the car was well worth the wait. With the engine being completely overhauled by a machine shop this flathead is ready to hit the road or parade route depending on your needs. The paint on this beauty is in great condition and should easily win any shows that it goes too. The rumble seat is guaranteed to bring a smile to everyone that sees it. With the optional trunk sitting on the back it really does bring back that nostalgic feel. Open the door and the interior, like the rest of the car, is spot on to the period. The brown vinyl is a nice touch and makes you feel like you are in the top of the line ride and you would be in 1931. The top is done in the correct fabric and appears as if it came out of 1931. This truly an exceptional piece of Automotive history and would make a great addition to any collection or a great sunny day backroad driver. Options on this 31 Model A Roadster include, Spoke Wheels with Bias Ply Tires, Manual Convertible Top, White Walls and Vinyl Interior.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
