Ford is a renowned motoring company, unlike any other. And their range of vehicles has been stunning car lovers throughout the decades, with numerous models grabbing the world’s attention showing up in a few movies, claiming a unique vintage status, or simply owning the market for undeniably rare qualities. As a result, Ford is an excellent choice for classic car collectors, and these are the best models to get your hands on if you are a proud vintage car collector.
The 1950s Ford Model T
While the current value of a Ford model T today will depend on the vehicle’s condition, this classic car is one every collector will want to get their hands on. In perfect condition, they sell for around $20 000, although most collectors who have a Ford model T in their collection never plan to sell, but instead want to hold onto this vehicle for as long as they can. If you’re able to get yourself a model T, be sure to find a retailer of authentic model T parts for sale, as keeping the vehicle in its original condition is essential to its market value.
1967 Ford GT40
The 1967 Ford GT40 may not be the oldest ford around, although it definitely is one of the slickest looking vehicles of its time. This model is also one of the highest sought-after fords to date as an iconic American vehicle that grabbed the lion’s market share back in the 1960s. A 1967 Ford GT40 in excellent condition can sell for a few million dollars in today’s classic car market.
1969 Mustang Boss 429
The Ford Mustang range of vehicles made waves back in the late 1960s as one of the most sought-after muscle cars of the day. Not much has changed as the 1969 model continues to maintain the status to this day. However, the 1969 Mustang Boss 429 is one of the first fifty of its kind built by hand and can fetch a handsome $600 000 on the market today.
1967 Shelby GT Super Snake
This vehicle is considered the first and the only of its kind, as a Shelby Mustang that has the engine of a GT50. Unfortunately, the public lacked interest during production time, so there’s not all that many out there today. However, this fuels its current market value even more. During a 2007 auction, a 1967 Shelby GT Super Snake fetched a whopping $1.3 million, rendering it one of the best Fords for collectors. More recently, the same model sold for a staggering $2.2million.
1967 Shelby GT500
This Ford model made a name for itself after starring alongside Nicholas Cage in the exceptionally iconic 2000 film, Gone in 60 Seconds. It then became one of the first classic Fords to ever sell for over $1million on the market. Even though the exact car used in the film raked in a whopping million dollars, others of its kind still rank high in terms of market value. Getting your hands on one may prove a bit tricky, although a 1967 Shelby GT500 will surely be the highlight of any classic car collection.
