Meticulously Restored 1929
Ford Model A Rumble Seat Roadster
From 1928 to 1931, Ford produced approximately 5 million Model A vehicles in various body styles. One of the most iconic is the beloved Rumble Seat Roadster of which only 120,000 – 130,00 (records are spotty) were made. This model was created for those who craved the sporty look of a convertible with extra seating for family or friends. This 1929 Ford is an excellent restored example that pays homage to its original design while enhancing reliability and drivability.
Nicely Restored, Ready to Drive
This beautifully restored Roadster is powered by a 4-cylinder engine paired with a 3-speed floor-shift manual transmission. Meticulous care was taken during the restoration to retain the authenticity of this classic vehicle.

Exterior: Classic Style
The famous “Any Color as Long as it’s Black” Ford paint has a light gray upper body and is in fantastic condition, complemented by tasteful pinstriping. Chrome accents shine brightly, and the body panels exhibit excellent fit and finish. The underside of the car is clean with minimal surface rust, reflecting the care taken in its preservation.
