cruiseliner64 Posted yesterday at 12:35 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:35 AM Hi guys,I have come across a 1980 GMC Astro and Im wondering if its worth what the guy is asking for it.So im asking you guys what you would expect to pay for it.Its a 1980 big grill model 6V92 Detroit,7 speed fuller and eaton axles.Day cab with 3600miles on the clock.It was stationed in a US army base in the UK in the reserve fleet for around 25 years before being sold of as surplus.It is in fantastic condition with the plastic still on the seats and door cards.Anyone give me any idea of its value???.I know it depends on weather you like them or not as to how much someone would pay for it but any guide to a price would be great.Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76022-gmc-astro/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 67RModel Posted yesterday at 11:49 AM Popular Post Share Posted yesterday at 11:49 AM Honestly something like that because of the condition, essentially no miles/use, and scarcity would probably bring "big money" here in the states for someone's collection that has deep pockets. The guy who is the high bidder will be motivated because it is essentially a "new truck" and will say to himself "where would you find another like it?". Hard to say what it would bring but my guess is if properly advertised through a reputable auction house that deals in antique vehicles and has all the documentation with it maybe $15,000 - 20,000. A run of the mill Astro that has been well used but is still in presentable condition mechanically and cosmetically would probably sell for anywhere between $4,000 - 10,000 depending. Too many variables to say. I will note the Detroit probably makes it more desirable. The 2 stokes have made a resurgence in popularity here I think just because of the sound they have and the "cool factor" of there not being anything like that made anymore. 2 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76022-gmc-astro/#findComment-583936 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted yesterday at 02:00 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:00 PM Also cabovers ordinarily don’t have a huge audience otherwise, the price would be a little higher. Good luck on that….
