In 1930, ord came out with the Model 180-A, eluxe Phaeton. The two-door phaeton was built to cater to those who wanted a light, porty open car that could accommodate 4 to 5 passengers without having to put passengers in a rumble seat. Just under 8,000 of this body style were built over 1930 and 1931, he only years this body style was offered.

Today, he stylish looks and the ability to have an open car that fits up to five people under a top, akes the two-door Deluxe Phaeton one of the most popular Ford body styles. The very limited production, nd a survival rate that numbers just a few hundred makes it one of the rarer Model A body styles.

This 1931 Model A Deluxe Phaeton is an older, ery correct restoration painted in appropriate colors for this body style and year. It’s a great tour car that still shows very nicely, s evidenced by its inclusion in both the 2012 Geneva, L Concours de Elegance, nd the 2011 Barrington, L Concours.

In 2011, ix new Goodyear tires were installed along with new tubes and metal stems on freshly sandblasted and painted wheels. A new LeBaron Bonney top was installed with correct back window glass. At the same time, ew leather seat covers were put on rebuilt front seats and the interior was dyed so that everything matches.

I have had the pleasure of owning and driving the car for ten years. The car runs great and is a pleasure to drive. It is not a show car and the interior, part from the front seats, s showing some age related cracking in door and side panels. There is a stain on the firewall from a one-time gasoline leak, hich was fixed long ago. The car has been a great fit for me since I wanted a car that was not so perfect that I would be afraid to drive it.

Please contact mewith any questions. I would also strongly recommend a personal inspection prior to purchase.
