The Ford Barn

I am a regular on the "A" barn and I am posing this question for a friend who is seeking price info for an estate sale of a 1919 Roadster. Sorry I do not have a picture at this time, but as an A owner and having seen many cars of all descriptions from fine point to junk, I would say this car is in excellent condition as a driver with nice paint, interior, all running gear and other features. Also this is possibly an old very very good restoration whch has been in "Covered" storage for years away from dust and sunlight. What is you estimate of it's worth as described? The owners are asking $13,000 and not being that familiar with "T" pricing, I do not know if this is even in the ballpark? Looking for educated answers, and Thanks, jim/Alabam...

Hard to judge price, but ball park is only what can be done without photos or inspection. Running is important, and then there is the fact 2 passenger T's are often out sold by those capable of taking more people.

The asking of $13k is high, esp in this market, the '19 was first year of electric start, so for that money it should have that option. Recent offers on eBay show a '15 runabout in running shape very good, at $7800. Two non-sales of 1920 and 1918 runabouts at $6600 and $8600.

Tmodel has it about right Jim. A very very excellent running car w/a clear title: $6500 but I'm talking museum quality. The 2 seater is less desireable that a 4. Also mentioned above. He's high. Let 'em stew a bit.
