Default Re: Not much demand for Model As at any price or is it antique cars in general?

The cash you get when you sell is what somebody else values the car at.

There is no correlation between the two.
I guess I need to tell the construction company building a house... "The cost for you to build the house is the price you pay for participating in a very engrossing hobby."


Why is it that skilled labor and time when applied to a car is worthless?


Everyone that says "This is meant to be a hobby only"... Anything you have ever bought for your car has been because someone was willing to dedicate a good portion of their life to bringing you products for it. Including the car itself. Model A's were not produced as a hobby and given away for free?

The next time you buy oil or spark plugs you will be paying someone a profit....That's the only reason the product is available for you to buy.
