    Default Looking for info on value of a 1976 Gypsy van for sale

    Hi, new member here. So be gentle.

    My Bro-in-law has an immaculate 1976 Gypsy van he has owned since new.

    It looks like it just came off the showroom floor. California vehicle so it doesn't suffer rust. Has had the second set of running gear since it does have 500,00 miles on it.

    Any ideas where I could find a valuation?

    I have done a number of searches but nothing pops other than some brochures for a 1981 model on ebay.

    Thanks

    Cal

    I looked on Kelly Blue Book and online it dont have anything older then 1987. Look on every used car value website you can find would be my best suggestion

    Once you get to a vehicle that's over 30 years old, the value changes around. In 1992 I bought a 1962 GMC 3/4 Truck. Couldn't find a book on that, but I liked it and I paid $2k for it. The truck today would bring far more in the same condition as it was 30 years old when I bought it but now it would be 45 years old.

    The same sort of thing goes for that van, there should be some specialty books on this sort of transation I think.
