Ah, this old chestnut.

In the end it's worth what people are prepared to pay for it.  In the Mustang world I've seen a few 1 of 1 cars with Marti reports, one recently was the only one that came out of the factory ordered with a radio.

Would you pay much more for this option or way more than the same car in better condition without a factory radio?

Unlikely.

The only time I'd go for these 'not so special' rare cars would be if I come across two in the basically the same condition at around the same price, then I'd go with the rarer of the two.

Edit: So for this reason it's advisable for the owner to declare the 'rarity' to make the car sell quicker than the next one without the features.

Would you say that this car is " Rare" or just "Priceless"    ???   :lol:

Funny a mate of mine took me for a run in he's box stock immaculate 1928 Ford Model A Roadster the other weekend . Wasn't really my cup of tea but did have to take my hat off to just how brilliant the thing drove and was finished.  When you then consider the only alternative back then was the horse and cart, the A model was state of the art automotive  :thumb:

If you had the cash there were alternatives to the horse and carriage from the early 1900s.

By 1928 there had been a number of Ford models manufactured.  The famous Tin Lizzie (model T) preceded the 1928 model A. It was produced from 1908 through 1927.

Leaving out the horseless carriage called the Quadricycle, the first Ford car was also called model A, but that was in 1903.
