I'm a younger guy, (23) and got a phaeton. I looked for over a year looking for roadsters and phaetons. Cars priced over 14k that were open seemed to take a lot longer to sell, whereas cars in the 8-12 range sold rather quickly (being open cars), atleast in my craiglist searches from jun 2016 to july 2017 in the east coast (virginia to maine) area. I saw a lot of decent stock tudors/coupes go for 5-7k. Some with pretty nice paint too.

I definitely think anyone wanting over 15k cash for a model a regardless of condition is gonna wait a while, not to take away anything from your vehicle.

Also, craigslist in my opinion is filled with people that want a good deal. I got my car for 3500 less than the guy was asking, after it had been for sale for a little over 2 weeks.

Hope I didnt offend you. Just mt $0.02 about what I know from buying and looking at Model As on craigslist.
