Yes, I agree. That's about $300-$400 too high for a defective transmission.
If the seller admits to the 2nd gear problem, I would wonder what else is
wrong with it.

Dave, I would keep moving on that one. I would pay between $250 and $350
for a known good overdrive tranny (with all the parts necessary). That is
what I have bought my last few for. The guy that wants $750 is dreaming.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to my last O/D swap question. Now for
obtaining an actual O/D transmission. How much does a used one go for in
anywhere from fair to great shape. I have an seller offering one with a bad
2nd gear synchro for $750 + shipping. Sounds a little high to me and even
higher to my wife. Does anyone have one they would like to part with??
