Is $800 too much, or about right? I of course have no idea the mileage or the condition. It's in a badly wrecked car here in Houston. Sad thing is I passed on an $800 heap POS poorly treated one, engine not running recently that had a very decent body. Just the engine was shot and the interior was horrifically destroyed.
I would not buy anything like this from a badly wrecked car because you cannot tell if damage was done to any of the bearings for and aft of the transmission (frontal impact, rear impact, shoving the engine or drivetrain into the front or rear of the transmission). Above that, there is a massive shock to anything inside the transmission based on the conditions involved in the wreck, that may have damaged something inside and not seen until you try to install/ride it.
