If the Ford Model T was the car that put America on the road, the Model A was the car that made driving on that road a nicer experience. Debuting in late 1927 as a 1928 model year, the Model A offered a nicely styled body, four colors and a top speed of around 65 mph. This 1928 Model A Phaeton 4-door Convertible is a beautiful first-year example of the famed model, benefiting from an older, high quality restoration.
 
Finished in Niagara Blue with contrasting black fenders and running boards, this Model A Phaeton was repainted about 20 years ago in what is believed to be its original color scheme, and remains in excellent condition throughout. The classic shape is most commonly seen on hot rods these days, but finding one restored to how it would have looked originally, makes you realize what a great design it was. With its polished grille bumpers and spare tire cover, to the black painted wire wheels with wide white walls, this Model A is an attractive open-top vehicle.
 
On the interior, brown leather covers the front and rear seats and door cards. In front of the driver sits a 4 spoke steering wheel and a shifter for the 3-speed manual and Mitchell hi/lo gear splitter. Unlike the Model T, these Model As were the first to adopt a more conventional control layout with the gas, brake and clutch pedals you would expect.
 
Powering the Model A is the famously stout 200ci “L-Head” inline-4 that produces 40 horsepower and 128 lb-ft of torque - the Model A is hardly fast, but it was built to reliably move people and cargo long distances. Power is then sent through a 3-speed manual transmission with a mitchell hi/lo gear splitter and a 3.77 rear end that essentially gives the car 6 forward gears. 4 wheel drum brakes slow the car down and the vehicle received upgraded wiring including an alternator conversion, but retains its 6-volt power.
 
In just over one year of production, Ford sold over a million Model As, and by the time it went out of production in 1932, nearly 5 million had been built. This nicely kept standard example is emblematic of the car so many people were driving nearly one hundred years ago, and will be a great attention getting classic everywhere you go .
