 (855) 586-3413 (855) 586-3413 1931 Ford Model A400 Convertible Sedan 3 Speed Manual 201ci Inline 4 Exterior Color: Black Interior Color: Dark Tan Leather Transmission: 3 Speed Manual Engine: 201ci Inline 4 Mileage: 1 History About Ford"s Model A400 Example:
As the original Ford Model A production was nearing completion, Ford announced a special Convertible Sedan model in the Deluxe line on May 22nd, 1931. The newly announced model would be called the A400 and showcased a very unique set of attributes to appeal to the customers wanting an attractive upscale sedan that combines the open top convertible with closed car comforts! This included full framed doors and rear quarter windows with glass that could be rolled up and down, and a convertible top that lowered quickly and folded flat at the rear. This structure provided a far more rigid body that helps eliminate typical squeaks and rattles of the Deluxe Roadster.
Each A400 would utilize Deluxe cowl lamps, left side spare wheel well, genuine leather seat upholstery, simulated walnut wood graining on the dash, garnish molding, & finish strips; fully carpeted interior, receive an adjustable driver seat, rear seat arm rests with depression in the floor for extra leg room, and chrome exterior windshield frame and wiper. Ford"s new Model A400 were quite special, wonderfully attractive, and built in very limited quantities! In fact, only 4,864 units were built for the domestic USA market thru December 1931 when production stopped, with another 229 sold for export use. Finding an example of this caliper today in the classic car market is extremely difficult!
Details About Our Available Model A400:
We are very excited to offer for sale a stunningly restored, 1931 Ford Model A400 Convertible Sedan finished in all Black over a factory correct Dark Tan crush grain leather interior! Having been preserved for the past 30 years with the same family, this beautiful classic would be parked amongst more than a dozen special early Fords in their collection. The frame-off restoration would be started by the father, and later completed by the son in 2019 after 4 years of effort. The restoration included a complete rebuild of the engine, transmission, and rear axle assembly. The braking system is completely new, fresh clutch, new Goodyear whitewall tires & tubes, exhaust system, interior wood framework & seat frames, all upholstery, perfectly fitted cloth top, interior carpet, side panels, professional wood graining, rebuilt gauges, rebuilt starter & generator, all new cloth-covered wiring, and more! Nothing has been eft untouched with results that would easily surpass the Ford factory standards of 1931!
The stylish vintage Ford example, seen here, continues to operate with its original 201ci Inline 4 cylinder engine and 3-speed manual transmission and features black wire spokes wheels, wide whitewall tires, tilt-out windshield, Ooh-ga horn, dual outside rearview mirrors, dual rear taillamps, luggage rack, and Motometer. Notably, the Model A400 Club has recognized this unit as Murray Body #4361 with engine #A4742214 in their registry. You will be hard-pressed to find one in this condition with such attention to detail for the money! Priced to sell, we encourage interested parties to act quickly! As always, thanks for looking!
