Description

A-Ford with sharpened engine. The A-Ford has been one of Sweden's most popular vintage cars of all time. Now a new generation has discovered the qualities of the A-Ford. This A-Ford can also be something of a "sleeper". A car in a visibly original version, but with something interesting under the hood, namely cylinder heads from Thomas and Scintilla magnetic ignition, which makes the car feel more alert than others we have driven.

It is important to have motor ears and be able to keep the right speed when changing gear. The car was sold new in Sweden and has had 3 owners. Since 2014 the car has been in a car collection, now sold by the estate. The instruction book and spare wheel are included.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Equipped with 4-cylinder side valve engine and 3-speed non syncro gearbox. In the original version, the stated power is 40hp. When we test drove, we noticed that the car responded significantly well . A look under the hood showed us that the car is equipped with Scintilla (Vertex) magnetic ignition and Thomas cylinder head. The radiator fan has 4 blades, against the original 2 blades. The owner has died, so we do not know exactly what was done with the engine. The car runs steadily and smoothly. Equipped with original mechanical brakes. Updated electrical system with new cables in 6-volt design. It has an almost new 6-volt battery. The car has mostly been stationary since 2018, so a review and regular service is recommended. Other-than that completely ready to drive.

  • Interior condition:

    Nice interior, of later manufacture, with button-up upholstered in a little custom style. Nice and comfortable padding in the seats. Slightly wavy door panels. Nice headliner and nice rubber mat. Extra equipped with heating package.

  • Exterior condition:

    Nice two-tone body with a new roof, what used to be called a pegamoid roof. Straight and nice body. The car has previously been renovated and maintains a good standard. The paintwork is not great, but is nice and tidy, but with a few flaws. Good chrome work and tires.

  • General condition:

    A car that arouses desire, starts immediately and drives easily with good comfort. Nice body, with all details in good condition. A recommended car.

Facts about the model

Om T-Forden satte världen på hjul så var det A-Forden som fick upp farten på världen. A-Ford var efterföljaren till Fords storsäljare T-Forden. När A-Forden introducerades i november 1927, som 1928 års modell var det i grevens tid. Konkurrenterna hade kört ikapp och förbi Ford Motor Company med bättre, snabbare och bekvämare bilar. Med A-Forden fick man nu en modern bil att saluföra. Starkare motor, riktig växellåda och snygg design. A-Forden blev en omedelbar succé. Den fjärde februari 1929 hade man redan sålt 1 miljon exemplar av bilen. I slutet av juli samma år hade man dubblat till 2 miljoner sålda bilar. Produktionen av A-Forden avslutades i mars 1932, efter att ha tillverkats i totalt 4 858 644 exemplar. Enligt föreningen Svenska A-Fordarna finns cirka 1200 A-Fordar registrerade i Sverige. Den variant som finns i flest exemplar är Ford Tudor 1930-31. Nytillverkade delar finns i massor att köpa, så det är lätt att hålla dessa bilar vid liv.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
