My brother is thinking about selling his 86 Chevy 3/4 ton 2 wheel drive. This truck was bought new by our Dad. Every reciept for this truck since new is there. I want to say there is no rust on this truck but there must be some somwhere with it being 24 years old. Gary did have it in the body shop a couple of yeas ago because the supports for the box were getting rusty so he had them replaced with original GM stuff and any other areas in question were attended too as well. It has had one repaint. The truck has 187000 killometers on it which is about 116000 miles. It has the fuel sipping 6.2 litre diesel and the automatic tranny had just been rebuilt. New tires and I think even a spare set of studded snow tires. Most of it's life it packed an 11 foot camper. (also available) so the rear springs were getting tired and have been recently replaced. We have no idea what to ask for this truck but damn sure it is not going to be given away. Any opinions on value would be appreciated.

It isnt worth much.
Standard cab 2wd and there is a reason chevy is running Isuzu diesels now.

Well thats real helpfull. LOL How much is not much? 2 Grand? 5 Grand? The later 6.2's were good and this one has had no problems other than one fuel pump. Here is another picture.

Heck your brother should just give to you shouldn't he?

$1000 to $1500 usd.

I'd say 2.5k. It looks like a nice truck, but 3/4 ton 2wd's aren't worth much. I had a 79 3/4 4x4 chevy that was pretty nice and rust free and It took a couple weeks to get half of that.

Guess you guys are low balling...I'd say more like $3500-$5000. I thought the 6.2 diesel is the same engine family as the current duramax made by detroit diesel? Anyway those trucks get 20+mpg good driver and with a turbo they are fine. A local guy with a 89 6.2 2wd truck claimed 25+mpg.

That is more like I was hopeing to hear. This is not your everyday run of the mill 1986 chevy truck. It has been babied, and is near mint. Dad passed at 87 years old 2 years ago so you know it was not abused. Almost all the miles were put on it when they retired and travelled south to avoid Canadian winters. My brother just took the seat cover off and it is like new underneath. He is going to advertise it in that price area and see what happens

1-Duramax is not a detroit diesel product. Penske bought Detroit Diesel a long time ago and made it what GM never could-PROFITABLE. GM got out of the light diesel biz when it figured out that a converted 350 Olds V8 is not the platform from which to base a diesel engine. Ford and Dodge figured it out long ago its best left to experts like Navastar and Cummins.
2-Late mod 6.2 are good just not for any kind of real pulling-mine went 300,000+ before it let go.

I'd say around $2000-$2500.
