is $450 a good price for ?

found a 30 model a todoor frame its missing the front crossmember.he has a 28-29 cowl and it looks like a model t front axel.he,s asking $450 for it all and he wont sell sep.the frame looks to be in real good condision.he dont have any doors to go with cowl or back of any car in the 30,s.my ? is would i be wasting $450 for all of it .or just hold on to my $ and wait for a better deal?

 

wait for a better deal.

 

you should hold out for a real project not a parts pile.

 

Doesn't sound like a good deal to me....

 

P***!!!!

 

T front axle is basically worthless. $100-$200 is standard price for an uncut Model A frame depending on condition, and a cowl might go for anywhere from $50 to $200 depending on what it's from (roadster is different than sedan, ect) and whether or not it has a windshield frame and other parts.

A cut-up frame and a generic sedan cowl with no windshield frame is $100 all day long. I'd say hold out, unless there's something else there to justify the price (like a ***le, that'd be worth the money by itself)
