The ad is a well done one for Craigs list. However, you live 5 hours away from Portland where it is advertised. Living in a small town makes it tough to sell something with a very limited market like a rare and expensive Model A.

You will need to market to a much bigger audience of Model A enthusiasts to be successful. The number of people actively looking for a $17,000 Cabriolet in non original colors, with aftermarket accessories and that "needs some things done", can probably be counted on one hand. eBay, Hemmings, and other world wide venues will be necessary to reach them.

Also, I'm not sure why you raised the price from a month ago. If it didn't sell at $16.5 then, why is $17.5 a better number now? Don't confuse ASKING prices of similar cars or various publications' "values" with the actual market.

It's much easier to buy a car than to sell one...especially a rare and expensive one.
