My Latest Model A Acquisition

Recommended Posts

I thought my AACA friends would like to see my latest acquisition.

It's a 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Sedan Delivery, Model 130B.

 

I have always "loved" sedan deliveries and have followed this one for over 6 months.

 

After long bout of going back and forth. I took the plunge. It will be in my stable next Wednesday.

Dave, congratulations - looks wonderful.

Thanks Walt.

The pictures do not do it justice.

 

As a side note, this is the Model 130 B. The 130 B's were built by Murray Coach for Ford.

As you of course know they built many coaches for the higher end automobiles. 

 

I'm having a little "refresh" done this week: tune up, installing an electronic ignition, a Power Master alternator that looks like the model a generator.

 

Also replaced the Motor Meter with the Quail Radiator Cap, installed the deluxe step plates on the running boards, added a sideview mirror on the passenger side and a few more things to personalize it to my liking.

 

It going to its first show on May 14th.

Really great things you did to personalize it. Especially that right side mirror! no one realizes how blind rear vision most old cars have.

Murray built some great coachwork.
