Russ,
Your a man ahead of your time. I know I won't be making friends here with this next statement, BUT, in the current economy, a basic good running, nice looking T, with th350 and a sbc, is only fetching $10~$12K max. Ouch, I know. A really nice T, with classic power such as a 409 and a 5 speed and IRS (Jaq or vette), top, great seats and panal/gauges and can be driven safely at least as aggressive as, say a 2007 Mustang, could bring $16K~$18K. Things seem to be a whole lot different than just 4 years ago in our little old hot rod market.
