For Sale: 1980 Ford Model A in Raleigh, North Carolina for sale in Raleigh, NC
Vehicle Description THIS IS A TRUE 1980 FORD MODEL A SHEA KIT CAR !! Harry Shay's effort to provide the nostalgic looks of the Model A Ford roadster with the ease of a late-model car.
Now, however, even commonplace cars of the Shay's 1978-'82 era (and its successor, by Camelot Motors) are open to consideration as something more than just transportation.
As such, one can consider the Shay as a contemporary to the Pinto and Fairmont on which it was based, rather than in the context of its 1920s inspiration.
Take into account its approximately 5,000-unit production run and it's even something of a rarity.
Slightly more complex than the original Model A under the cowls, now mounted is an overhead cam 4-cylinder engine 140 cubes with 88 HP from the Ford Pinto.
A very recognizable setup for any mechanic, now much easier to have worked on if a problem should arise.
This car is also equipped with a FOG 4 speed manual transmission, and a 7.
5 inch rear axle.
