"6475 1930 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan
The Tudor sedan body style was one of the first Model A body styles. In fact, the ""mysterious new Ford"" seen on the streets of Detroit in the fall of 1927 was indeed the new Model A Tudor sedan. The most popular of all Model A body styles, the Standard Tudor was available in all four Model A years, with well over 1.25 million of them being built between 1927 and 1931.
For consignment, a 1930 Ford Model A Tudor sedan that's been family owned since 1983 and garage kept. Model A's enjoy an enthusiastic and knowledgeable following and are a great way to get into the world of pre war classic cars.
Exterior
Classic Black painted body over green wheels makes for the ideal presentation. Articulated fenders flow seamlessly into the wide running boards, all cradling the stately body and its large windows, slightly rounded top, and upright windscreen. The forward flat surfaces continue with the grille and the back of the car which is as broad as a barn door and just as flat, wearing a spare wheel and tire. A pair of pinstripes encircle the car and match the apple green of the 19-inch wire wheels. A Boyce Motometer tops the radiator and could use a good polish and that's consistent with much of the metal work on the car. It's very good, but there's room for improvement. The top grained material on the roof is in bad shape, revealing some of the cotton batting but fortunately, there are aftermarket companies that make replacements. Other imperfections include a crack in a rear window, some surface rust and paint chipping around the engine cover hinges, swirls and checking in the paint, and various chips in the paint.
Interior
Brown tweed door panels include a cinched map pocket and begin what will be a cavalcade of the material, all in good condition. It's on the front bucket seats, puffy and plain and period correct, while the back bench seems like the desired perch, surrounded by brown tweed walls and headliner. It's like being enveloped by a warm, autumn jacket. The 4 spoke steering wheel shows some age and cracking, but the body keyed metal dash is in good shape and houses the center clover leaf panel that is the gauge cluster and ignition . The rubberized floor covering is worn, and the shifter and brake lever are unpolished, but intact.
Drivetrain
Behind the engine cover we find an engine and exhaust manifold colored by surface rust but complete and intact. It's a 201ci inline 4 cylinder rated at 40 horsepower fed by a 1-barrel carburetor and tied to a 3-speed manual transmission sending power to the rear axle and 3.77 gears. Mechanical drum brakes are found front and rear.
Undercarriage
Driver quality conditions underneath with a fair share of surface rust on the simple frame and underside. It's all intact however and presents with good bones. Oil is noted coating the rear differential with some on the oil pan, flywheel cover and transmission as well. Transverse leaf springs are the mode of suspension front and rear while the single exhaust joins a stock style muffler and then terminates with a tailpipe under the car.
Drive-Ability
Despite its cosmetic issues, the car starts, runs, and stops in fine fashion. The large windows allow great visibility, and the seats are as comfortable as they were in 1930 and in general, the interior is a nice place to be. The limited functions all work as intended.
Enclosed cars were quickly picking up steam in this era and the Model A Tudor was the most popular on the road. Here's a bit of a diamond in the ruff that won't need much polish to bring it to show condition. In fact, it will probably require more elbow grease than anything else. As mentioned, a large support network exists, parts and help are available. If you're under 50, pick up the mantle and keep these prewar cars in the forefront of the hobby by joining the crowd!
