I agree and disagree with this comment.

I agree that there are a lot of Model A’s that have been used up. Many owners, poor maintenance, made up from many different cars, barn finds that should have been left in the barn, etc.

Than there are the two or three owner, never left outside, well maintained, properly cared for, stock original cars.

Even the best antique will ware out with hard use over time. Whether a house, furniture, painting, or antique car.

As with any other antique, as there becomes less and less really good ones available, the prices will at least level off. I think they will increase.

So I say, “use up your cars”, trick them out, modify them, paint them funny colors. Keep adding all those goodies that Ford never offered.

The well cared for cars that are left, will just be worth that much more.

Think that low mileage Volvo or Ford F-150. In pristine condition on the used car lot. Enjoy.
