This Ford Model A got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1928 Ford Model A roadster is powered by a 201ci inline-four paired with a three-speed manual transmission. The car is finished in green with black fenders over a green interior, and additional features include a tan soft top, yellow 21″ wire wheels, chrome bumpers, cowl-mounted spotlights, turn signals, etched wind wings, a rumble seat, and a rear-mounted spare tire and luggage rack. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in July 2021, and the battery was subsequently replaced. This Model A roadster is offered with a Pennsylvania title.

The 201ci flathead inline-four was factory rated to make 40 horsepower at 2,200 rpm, and power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed sliding-gear manual transmission. The selling dealer replaced the battery in summer 2021.
