The Ford Model A was the second huge
success for the Ford Motor Company, after its predecessor, the 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 model had used the name in
1903–04) was designated a 1928 model and was available in four
standard colours.
By 4 February 1929, one million Model As had been sold, and by 24
July, two million. The range of body styles ran from the Tudor at
US$500 (in grey, green, or black) to the Town Car with a dual cowl
at US$1200. In March 1930, Model A sales hit three million, and
there were nine body styles available
