Model Overview

This ready-made Artitec model reproduces a Ford Model A Phaeton with its folding roof lowered. The vehicle features a dark blue body, contrasting black fenders and running boards, tan seating, whitewall tires, and gold-colored wire wheels.

The model also recreates the open four-door passenger compartment, upright windshield, radiator surround, headlights, front and rear bumpers, side-mounted spare wheel, license plates, door handles, and folded fabric roof. Fine body lines, subtly aged surfaces, and carefully reproduced trim give the car a convincing early-1930s appearance.

Vehicle History

The Ford Model A replaced the Model T for the 1928 model year and was produced through 1931. It offered more conventional controls, improved braking, and a broader range of factory body styles than its predecessor.

The Phaeton was an open four-door touring body with a folding fabric roof rather than a permanently enclosed passenger compartment. With the roof lowered, it provided fully open seating for recreational and everyday motoring.

Ford Model A vehicles became common throughout the United States during the late 1920s and early 1930s. Their affordability, simple mechanical construction, and wide selection of body styles made them popular with private owners and businesses alike.
About Artitec Ready-Made Models

Artitec's Ready-Made models are handcrafted from high-quality resin and produced in limited runs. Each model is expertly preassembled, hand-painted, and often subtly weathered to recreate the appearance of a real vehicle in use. Because every model is finished by hand, small variations may occur, making each piece unique.

Artitec uses vacuum-cast resin to reproduce exceptionally fine, true-to-scale details that can be difficult to achieve with conventional manufacturing methods. Etched-brass parts are added where appropriate to capture delicate components and further enhance realism.

Each model is assembled, painted, and weathered by skilled specialists—a process requiring considerable time, precision, and experience. Artitec Ready-Made models are ideal for collectors seeking exceptional detail and realism without the time and effort required to build and finish a model kit.
