Good Points
The Ford 4 Door Sedan is a simple, fun, reliable. Easy to find parts for, cheap running, fun to drive, good resale value.
Bad Points
Mechanical brakes, slow speeds.
General Comments
When I was growing up and through most of my teen years, dad always seemed to have a Ford A or T model sitting around. The first vehicle I ever drove was a '28 "A" truck. I grew to love those Ford "A's". Dad's last one was the '29 sedan. We used it as a fishing car. The mechanical brakes were iffy on downgrades and the headlights were dim and turned themselves on and off on their own, but otherwise, a reliable get-there-and-back car. Often it was used to push-start much newer cars. Dad always said he could fix anything on it with wire, wrench and a hammer!
Still my favorite car.
