'Ford Model A' of Birmingham, UK, Manufactured 1928

Front view.

Starter handle.

Luggage carrier behind the spare tyre.

The 'Ford' logo in front.
The 'running board'.
Manufactured in the UK in 1928, and named 'Ford Model A', it was first registered in Ceylon in 1931 this car is still in running condition. The owner told me that this was the earliest model to come with electric head-lights powered by a 6 Volt battery. The earlier model had carbide head-lamps.
