LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO APPRAISE MY CAR FOR INSURANCE PURPOSES. SALEM, OR. AREA. 503 363 9301 H 503 507 0876 C ALBPRB@GMAIL.COM

This should be in the general forum, not support section. This is for people having issues like not being able to log on or password issues, not car related questions.

Paul that might be a tall order to fill here in Oregon, finding someone that knows market values on Ford Model T's. You might want to try this; https://www.ebay.com/sch/ebayadvsearch? ... acat=10073
Type the year of your car in the search box (along with Ford Model T is it does not show when you look) then go down and click the sold box and search. Should show what cars are selling for on eBay. Some car value books are base on Big Name auctions other include places like eBay. Also check the cars in the classifieds here and see what cars like yours may have sold for. While you don't want to under value it, going too far the other direction is not good either.

HI MARK,
THANK YOU FOR THE INTUITIVE REPLY. I WILL DO AS YOU SUGGEST RE; USING A DIFFERENT COLUMN. IT SEEMS ODD THAT WE DO NOT HAVE A "WANTED" COLUMN PERSE' AS DOES THE HCCA CLUB. REGARDS & THANKS. PAUL

It got moved to General Discussion. I suggested having a wanted section but was told the just having one, gets more views on everything. The General Forum would still be the place to ask for help, you are going to get more eyes on the question. I am guess you are asking about a 1913? Most people here that could help with a value are going to need information and photos. I just ran a check on 1913 on eBay, none were found, so guess that is out. I saw your ad on the HCCA site. Hope it works out.

You can get some idea from the average auction and sales data from this site. Search Model T year for sale and conceptcarz should show up. The data certainly fluctuates depending in the cars and conditions of the cars.

Keith Townsend in Gresham would be a great place to start. He knows the area and the market, has been a T guy for about 200 years, I think.

HI, TROUT JOHN, I DID CHECK THE LINK YOU MENTIONED & IT WAS RIGHT ON AS TO WHAT I WAS LOKING FOR, BUT I STILL NEED AN APPRAISER. THANKS VERY MUCH. PAUL

I think you need a new insurance company, American Collectors
Insurance and Hagerty are two that use agreed value no appraisal required.

What insurance company are you using? Not all of the specialty antique car companies will require an appraisal unless you are valuing it above what they usually see for similar vehicles. Post your question also on the AACA discussion forum as that will give you some exposure beyond just the Model T community.

HI GUYS,
THANKS FOR ALL THE INPUTS. I DID TRY TO LOCATE KEITH TOWNSEND. THE INTERNET LOCATER ONLY SHOWED ONE IN DALLAS, OR. I CALLED, GOT AN ANSWERING MACHINE, LEFT A MESSAGE & THATS AS FAR AS IT WENT. S.O.P. PAUL

Paul check your PM's. I will send you Keiths phone number.

Paul-
I sent you an email.
