Paige & Jewett Cars, Parts & Information
I. I want to buy/sell a Paige/Jewett? What are they worth?
My personal recommendation is to start with your local old car club. The members can provide helpful information on the value and availability of old cars in general and of Paige and Jewett autos in particular. There are chapters of the Antique Automobile Club, the Horseless Carriage Club, and the Veteran Motor Car Club in many areas.
Another source for cars and parts is Hemming's Motor News, available on large newsstands. My impression is that sellers ask top dollar in their ads and that cars may actually change hands for less money.
As for value, I feel the value of Paige and Jewett autos, making allowance for condition and features, is comparable to makes like Dodge, Hudson, Essex, Studebaker, Erskine, Hupp, Hupmobile, Overland, Velie, Moon, Reo, Chandler and others. The exception is the 1921-23 Daytona speedster, which is the most desirable Paige-Detroit model and priced accordingly.
