The third sale Bonhams held in June was the liquidation of the Den Hartogh Ford museum in the Netherlands. Kind of a weird spot for one of the largest collections of Ford vehicles anywhere in the world, but everyone’s got their thing. In chronological order, the early Fords we featured sold for:
- 1903 Model A – $167,440
- 1904 Model C – $104,482
- 1905 Model B – $488,924 (over seven times its initial estimate and the overall top sale)
- 1906 Model F – $109,840
- 1906 Model K – $401,856
