1930 Ford Model A. And yes, it's an automobile.

Jonathan Welsh caught the car on Deer Isle, Maine. " I think we have to call this one an "automobile". Ford's Model A had the difficult task of succeeding the company's ultra-best-selling Model T, which was in production from 1908 to 1927. The A ran for just four years but sold well and helped Ford catch up with competitors whose vehicles had surpassed the aging T in styling, comfort and performance. Model A production totaled nearly 5 million. The cars came in a range of configurations from a basic roadster, starting just under $400, to a fancy town car at $1,400.The asking price for this well-kept coupe, in 2021 dollars, is $19,500."
