The Appeal
Here we have a very well-executed recreation of the iconic Ford Model A, known as a Badsworth. This example was professionally built by The Vintage Motor Company in 1987 using Ford Sierra/Granada running gear and a Ford Pinto 2.0 petrol engine with an automatic gearbox.
With its elegant cream and black paintwork, chrome wire wheels with whitewall tyres, and tasteful interior appointments, this wedding car presents a good opportunity for anyone looking to enter the wedding car business or add to an existing fleet.
