Can Ford Model A 1903 be bought?




In 2001 these  Ford Model A 1903 changed hands to an unknown person and return to the United States, which was later purchased by John O'Quinn at an auction in 2007 for U.S. $ 693,000.

Ford Model A 1903 in ever offered in 2010 with the highest bid U.S. $ 325,000 which will certainly not be sold at such a low value. I wonder what will happen when this 1903 Ford Model A stake in the auction market to be held by RM Auctions later.

Ford Model A 1903  numbered in chassis 30 is a four-passenger vehicle with a wheelbase of 1.829 meters. The engine carries two cylinder 1639 cc engine that can generate power 8 Hp. Power is not that much bigger than the lawn mower, but the buyer would not be using these rare cars as a means of transportation.


IN the last five years, there have been three oldest Ford units sold. Ford Model A 1903 red this one is one of the first three cars made ​​Ford Motor Company. By the age of 109 years it has changed ownership five.

You could be the owner of the sixth arm through an auction RM Auctions in Hersey, Pennsylvania which will be held next month. But for the record, when it changed hands in 2007, the vehicle was sold for U.S. $ 693,000.

If without considering inflation, etc., vehicles in its original new condition sell for U.S. $ 850 has multiple price by 81,000 percent!

Indeed the vehicle is owned by Herbert L McNary, a butter maker of Britt, Iowa. Then sold to Harry E Burd from Iowa who bought from McNary family for U.S. $ 400 in the 1950s. Once restored, the vehicle is sold to a Ford dealership Switzerland in 1961.
