Because some may find it to be fun, and just might appreciate in value as
well, or at lest not depreciate.  If Ford came out with a Model A that is a
near exact copy of the original, it would cost a lot more than $2495 I am
sure, and there would be a number of people in line to buy one!  It would be
about as practical for transportation as the 0 is for photography.


 I guess that it is something like "if you

Never heard of such things, so I would have to defer to your experience with
them!  ;-)
