I know these belong in Classifieds - Cars For Sale, but I couldn't find a "New Topic" button to place them there. I have NO connection with these cars or their sale. This Post is for INFO ONLY. There are two T's on Facebook marketplace, currently that are, what I consider, GOOD BUYS. Both are sold with a Bill of Sale, ONLY, although it might be possible to apply to TXDOT for a "Lost Title". First is a 1922 Roadster in Gilmer (East Texas). Listed at $2750.00. Facebook description: 3 of 4 tires hold air, Needs gas tank, spark plugs and wires, and coils and coil box. Car looks to have original paint and interior. Second:1923 Touring in Kerrville, (central Texas). Just reduced to $4800.00. Car out of 50 year storage. Paint and interior in good shape and may be original. Tires hold air. No spare tire or wheel. Windshield glass, broken and hood tops dented by kids crawling on it. Original tools and jack. Engine turns. Remember, both are sold with Bill of Sale.
There are SIX others listed at no more than $9000.00 and most are restored and are runners/drivers.

I saw that too on Facebook marketplace here in Texas and thought they were good deals. A bargaining point would be no titles and only the bill of sale. The prices were a good deal but maybe the market is down. I know nothing about the cars or the owners and just happened to see it when I was looking for another tractor for our place.

The original looking T that was long stored caught my eye and finding one like it was pretty scarce.

By the way the deals are out there if the timing is right. I was restoring my 24 T Coupe and needed the correct rear fenders for it and had bought one NOS with primer for 250.00 shipped several years ago. The other I found 2 years later from a tip by my older sister about some old car parts about 4 miles from me. I reluctantly decided to take a look and the guys family had a yard sale and there was the correct rear fender I was looking for and it was a NOS. I offered them $40.00 for it and they took it. I later found out the deceased Father bought it at the old Ford dealership before it moved to another location. I call it luck.
