Sold one at an auction sale 2 summers ago, and I think we got 750 bucks for it, looked in about the same shape.

Little did I know I coulda threw it on craigslist or kijiji and got a fortune for it lol.

I wonder what my running model a roadster of the same vintage is worth, if this 29 truck is worth near 3500?!

Here's one for sale by a dealer on ebay for ~15k USD:

Ford : Model A Ford : Model A | eBay

It's in Arizona, so who's to say what you could get for something similar in SK... In my neck of the woods I've seen running model a's go for so little (say $5-8K and up) relative to many of the hot rodded ones (10's of K's). Sure it costs a bundle to build a hot rod, but it's not like these 80+ yr old cars & trucks are growing on trees.
