what is the current value for a generation 1 brat with little rust and in good running condition. specifically west coast value?

Picked up mine today for $200. It's a 78.

$1K IF they can be found

Here's a quick search of '78:

The prices of all BRATs can vary like crazy. In reality, it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay you for it.

i generally think the going rate is the 600 cost to ship one here (since they don't exist in my area)

, plus about 1000 or more vehicle purchase cost, way dependant on the condition of body and drivetrain and if it runs or not.

......

hopefully get one for less than 1800 shipped, but could easily see paying 4000 for a nice one then the shipping cost.

 

does it have jumpseats

does it have body work before

does it have any rust

toppper/BRAT hat

roll bars

etc

rats living in it (thats a no no for me)
