Lets factor in 88 years from now and see if you can find most of the pieces to a 2018 F150 in one convenient place. If we all could go down to the ford dealer and order a new Model A with factory new parts to spec would anyone restore these cars?

99% of restored cars have way more money in them vs their actual worth and someone could have passed away and never finished this project or lost interest or money so the buyer of this car is off to a great restoration start - alot of the hard parts are done and pain to get parts are there. Ive traveled many miles many states away for parts to my AA.
