TheĀ Ford Model AĀ (also colloquially called theĀ A-Model FordĀ or theĀ A, andĀ A-boneĀ amongĀ roddersĀ andĀ customisers),Ā was the second huge success for theĀ Ford Motor Company, after its predecessor, theĀ Model T. First produced on October 20, 1927, but not sold until December 2, it replaced the venerable Model T, which had been produced for 18 years. This new Model A (a previous modelĀ had used the name in 1903–04) was designated a 1928 model and was available in four standard colors.

By 4 February 1929, one million Model As had been sold, and by 24 July, two million.Ā The range of body styles ran from the Tudor at US$500 (in grey, green, or black)Ā to the Town Car with a dual cowl at US$1200.Ā In March 1930, Model A sales hit three million, and there were nine body styles available.

Model A production ended in March, 1932, after 4,858,644 had been made in all body styles.[5]Ā Its successor was theĀ Model B, which featured an updatedĀ 4-cylinder engine, as well as theĀ Model 18, which introduced Ford’s newĀ flathead (sidevalve) V8 engine.
