The Model A versus All Other Fords
Ford's official twitter is doing an NCAA style tournament bracket that pits a lot of their historically significant vehicles up against each other.
The Model A is up against the Ranchero in the first round and is currently up by 70 votes with less than 7 hours to go. The Model A was up by almost 120 votes yesterday but the Ranchero crowd came through and is narrowing the gap. If you have twitter run over and vote real fast. https://twitter.com/Ford/status/1372...872737282?s=20 The whole bracket can be viewed here. -Tim

Re: The Model A versus All Other Fords
The 1932 Ford is being destroyed by the 66 GT40. Not a lot of legitimate votes in that face off.

Re: The Model A versus All Other Fords
What is a Ranchero? We didn't see them. That is a serious question and probably highlights the absurdity of the survey.

Re: The Model A versus All Other Fords
Yes, that image looks like a copy of the Australian Ute. What powered them, when were they made - Oh, the questions!!!

Re: The Model A versus All Other Fords
Best Ford of all time twitter competition is in its second round and the Model A is facing off against the 1962 Country Squire Wagon.
If you have twitter run over and vote! https://twitter.com/Ford/status/1373468505807466496

Re: The Model A versus All Other Fords
This is fun and a neat idea.
Unfortunately I do not have Twitter so could not vote. Personal experience. After having owned several antique Fords, the Model A has always been the last one to let me down. Since I started fooling with Model A's in 1971, I've never had to be flatbedded home with a Model A Oh that and my '67 Galaxie 500 with a 390, that car wore like iron one of the best I ever owned. I never did anything to it. Never had to. |

During the 1970s, the Ranchero name was used in the South African market for a rebadged Australian Ford Falcon utility. Shipped from Australia in complete knock down (CKD) form, these vehicles were assembled in South Africa at Ford's plant in Port Elizabeth.[3] In Argentina, a utility version of the locally produced Ford Falcon was also called Ranchero.[4
