I don't follow the values on those machines. As long as you didn't spend thousands you should be ok. Someone with better knowledge will chime in.

For the VMC-27A you have, I don't think I would pay more than $400-$500 - needs paint to be displayable IMO. It is worth that and more in parts!

It is complete, looks rust & dent free - definitely an easy restore!
I've seen them sell for $800-$1000 or more in some cases, but yours is not that caliber of a machine.

Thank You Guys!

I got it for $350 but the right side split door has a dent in it so Im snooping around for a replacement.

A good body man can probably fix the door. These doors look great when painted so it shouldn't be a real issue.

Ok, thank you.  I'm seeing one today at lunch and I think he'll be able to get the dent out.
