I can't find the "Figuring the Value of a Model T" formula

Post by schwabd1 » Wed Nov 12, 2025 1:37 pm

Looking for an old form that had how to get in the ballpark of the value of a ModeT. I thought Steve Jelf put it together. It had various levels from a show car to a pile of parts and several "add this" and "deduct this" values in the descriptions. Anyone have a copy?

Cosmetics are expensive. That's true of any car. Sheet metal work, too.

I'd love to know how the prices have changed, 22 years on.
