About the Model A Ford

The Ford Model A was in production from 1928 - 1931. It was the second huge success for the Ford Motor Company, the Ford Model T being its first.

The 1928 release of the Model A introduced all new models, colors and features as opposed to the black only Model T. These features included a three speed sliding gear transmission 40 HP engine, four wheel brake system and hydraulic shock absorbers. The original prices ran from around $500 to $1200 dollars. Sales were very strong but as with all companies, the Depression had a major impact. For the four years of production Ford produced over 4 million Model A's.

The Model A was replaced in 1932 with the Model B and Model 18 which had Ford's new V-8 engine.

Today it is estimated that there are over 250,000 Model A's still in use today.

If you want to really have fun driving a Ford Model A, you should try traveling the back roads of America and international destinations with a group of like minded enthusiasts. Traveling in a group gives you the security of touring with fun people who know how to drive, fix, and enjoy the car as it was designed.

We are an ambitious group who love our classic cars as much as we love exploring new places. We are always on the lookout for our next great tour. Our 2018 agenda includes a two week tour to South Dakota and The Black Hills in September.

We are currently accepting applications for membership. Visit our tours page for details on future and past tours.

The Model A Touring Club is an international travel club. We were established in 2000 as a Special Interest group of the Model A Ford Club of America (MAFCA).
