The Ford Model A series, built around 1930, was the follow-up to the Model T and was the first Ford to incorporate the 'modern' control layout, i.e. clutch, brake and accelerator pedals and an electric starter. It still used a gravity feed petrol system and internal warming was via a trap door in the facia next to the driver. Many models was built, this being the 'Tudor' body shape. Now sought after for 'pimping' by the California surfing set. This rather sad specimen clearly needs the body to be refurbished.
