[6pack] TR6 Transmission

[Todd Bermudez]

Hi Joe,

As far as worth...what's it worth when you NEED a gearbox?  It's worth what
you're willing to pay....how desperate you are for something you can drop into
your car.  You might try to buy one for $100 and you might get a perfectly
good one for that price.  Then again, you might not?  How much is your time
worth to find out you have been sold a gearbox that requires a rebuild?  All
of a sudden, you have a lot of labor into something.  What's the rebuild going
to cost?  Maybe cheaper to buy another one at 100?

What's funny...if you're selling or storing in hopes of selling, you
practically can't give them away.

Cheers,

Todd Bermudez
