The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Looking for Model T for wife. Prices seem a lot higher than expected. Why?

Thanks, guys.

Yea, for the prices I'm seeing (for the level of T we are seeking), looks like a Model A would be less costly.

I think I'll just try and talk her into getting another Model A for what she wants.

A couple years ago, I kept hearing about guys picking up restored T's for way under $10K (like $5-8K) and was expecting something closer to that range now. Well, guess those days are gone.

Another option, since we're very young, maybe the prices will dip again someday and we can revisit this at that time.
