By 1926 even Henry Ford had to admit that his Model T, the car that 'put the world on wheels', had become obselete. No follower of convention, he terminated T production on May 26th 1927 despite having nothing to replace it with. Henry himself directed the development of a new longer, lower-slung chassis; Howard Hicks-designed 3285cc four-cylinder engine; three-speed manual transmission and novel electrical system. His son Edsel oversaw the styling. By the time the Model A made its debut on December 2nd, there was a backlog of 400,000 orders for a car nobody had seen.
Reportedly a well-known sight on the infield at the Daytona International Speedway, this characterful Hot Dog Truck is thought to be ‘fully equipped and ready to go subject to safety and hygiene checks etc’. Finished in Green with Black upholstery, the Ford is described by the vendor as being in ‘good’ (bodywork, paintwork, interior trim) or ‘excellent’ (engine, gearbox, electrical equipment) condition. Recently imported from America, it has been NOVA declared and had a UK V5C Registration Document applied for. Sure to be welcomed at Americana events, this Model A has the makings of a good business.
