The "Pickers"

Oh an to just add on more thing. Anyone else notice that pretty much everything bought on the show over the last year or so is still hanging on the wall in the shop.
 
to frank the car was a jewel and that all that matters....its not also the price you pay for something....its the want value...frank fell in love and may keep the car.....he already had a name for it!!
 
First off the show is only entertainment. I usually watch it. The guys are not model A experts. As for the 29 standard coupe, I would think that if any, or most of us owned it and had worked on it and spent money in the process, we wouldn't want to sell it for six thousand dollars. There are people with money that know model A's, that would or have spent $50.000.00 for a 29 standard coupe, but the car was near perfect and not your everyday driver car. I would also think that most of us wouldn't pay $6000.00 for that particular model A, I know that I wouldn't. I'm not a purist but the car had been clowned up way too much for my taste.

I think that model A's are the most underpriced collector car on the market, especially if you take into account the money it will cost to build even a decent driver car. You've got to love them if you collect them. If you try to sell one you will most likely come out at a loss and this is just wrong.

The show really didn't help the perception or value of the model A in general. I think that the people that make the show had probably heard some of the harsh remarks made here about the show. Remarks like stupid show, negative remarks about the actors salary and all of the negative things said about Danelle. Its not out of the realm of possibility that the show was in retalliation to the model A community.
