1just4don Posted February 28, 2007 Report Posted February 28, 2007 I just found a pretty decent 23 Model T in these parts for sale and just wondered if anybody had a handle on what they might be worth?? So far sounds like a good 'runner' and some things have been redone, partial restoration. Any thoughts or ideas appreciated. Could I call it a T-23 and fit here anyway??? Talk about old school, my grandfather had a pickup about this age,,,called it his hoopee and hauled junk. Sure was a different riding truck Just barely remember it!! Edited to add--its a roadster!!

De Soto Frank Posted February 28, 2007 Report Posted February 28, 2007 It really depends on condition/completeness/originality... A nice un-molested T is "worth more" to a T-enthusiast than some clunker that's been cobbled together from parts from the four corners of the world... I was earnestly shopping for one about two years ago... the "black-radiator" T's ('17-'25) generally can be picked-up for between $4,000 to $6,000 as a "runner/ driver". A 100-pt AACA Senior trophy car might run between $10,000 to $15,000... They're NOT "Barret-Jackson" priceless... after all, Ford Motor Co. produced some 15-million of them between 1908 and 1927, and they are still one of the most common antique cars available in the world. Model T Haven ( .com) out in the midwest usually has "complete" T's for between $1,500 and $3,000, but many of their open cars are missing the top and bows, may need re-wooding, etc. Spend as little for it as you can get away with... there's great club support and repro-parts availability, but as with all old cars, body work, upholstery, engine rebuild ( babbit bearings!) quickly adds-up, so you want to be careful about spending too much on the car in the first-place. Unless the owner/seller has lots of documentation on the car, clean title, etc, I'd be very cautious if the price climbs above $4,000. Just my two-cents... Frank McMullen Quote
Norm's Coupe Posted March 1, 2007 Report Posted March 1, 2007 Not sure what it's worth but those things make some really neat looking Street Rods. Quote
oldmopar Posted March 1, 2007 Report Posted March 1, 2007 I sold a 1926 Tudor Model T about 4 or 5 years ago in nice condition for $5,300. see photo. It was fun to drive but at about 30 Mph it was too slow for me . I had it about a year Ed Quote
bob westphal Posted March 1, 2007 Report Posted March 1, 2007 Be very careful about the wood body framing. Use a sharp ice pick on every piece of exposed wood. The wood parts are readily available but it's a hell of a lot of work! Quote
