Well i hate to do it but the 24 has to go, gotta expand the business and need to free up funding.

What would a good number be on a 24 touring, runs and drives, tires and tubes less then 10 miles on them, new coils, muffler, bearings in front, manifold ,battery. (just spent $1600 at the local expert) only issue is a finicky generator and parking brake doesnt hold well. Runs on mag or coils.. paint 6-7/10 flaky on hood. older restoration, top great seats nice...

Thanks

It runs? Has the motor been rebuilt? (New babbett, bored, aluminum pistons, valves etc) Has the transmission been looked at? How are the wood wheels? Has the rear end been gone through? These are some questions a knowledgeable T person would want to know.
If you are looking to sell I would suggest taking the car to a nice location and taking lots of photos, then put them on something like photobucket. You can have it set for public viewing and put a link in any ad you place.
Depending on your location, I have seen a nice Model T of a similar vintage with known mechanical condition hard to sell at 10,000. Ball park, 5-7,000 maybe 8,000. Just my opinion.
 
The engine was rebuilt in the 80's, then the car was used in parades only (lived in the Daniel Boone antique museum in NC indoors for at least the last 20 years. The owner passed and all the info i have is 2nd hand. The rear end is unknown, Wheels are ok, my next task was to replace them with demountables if not then at least replace the spokes after seeing the utah crash.

Runs and drives fine (absolutely the best driving T I have ever driven, granted its the first and only T i've driven but that makes it the best!)
 
With the unknowns, I agree on five to seven grand, maybe eight. You might be lucky and get more, but it's not likely.
