Harry Shay Founded the “Model A and Model T Motor Car Reproduction Corporation” also known as “Shay Motors Corporation” in the spring of 1978. In conjunction with Ford Motor Corporation, Shay set out to build a limited number or Model A reproduction cars to mark the 50th Anniversary of the car. Shay had a great deal worked out with Ford as ford waived its design patents so the Shay roadster could be built, and Ford marketed and sold the Shay Model A through its Ford Lincoln Mercury dealerships. Ford loved the publicity, just as in December of 1927, dealers reported 200 to 600 people coming through there show rooms when they first displayed the Shay. Not since the introduction of the Mustang had the dealerships seen so much activity. The Shay was identical to the original in appearance. The fiberglass body were of such excellent quality, even the keenest eye could hardly make out the difference. The mechanicals and suspension were significantly upgraded from the original, giving the Shay a modern feel and could handle the driving and traffic demands of the modern day. The motor was a 2.2 liter Ford Cylinder originally designed for the Pinto. Today, the Shay Model A's remain very popular as the more modern mechanicals keep them a very usable classic.
The 1929 Shay Modal A Roadster offered here is a one owner vehicle that has been meticulously cared for since purchased new. It is finished in classic Dove Grey with black fenders and black interior and black convertible top. The car remains 100 percent original from new with the exception of new wide white wall tires. The car features the original 2.2 liter engine, 4 speed transmission, AM / FM radio, luggage rack, spoked wheels, and the classic aooogah horn. At 1353 miles, the presentation of this Shay is outstanding in all areas. Do not miss this opportunity to own this modern classic.
