lol I'd swap you for my stally any day for that stuff! I'd say its worth minimum $500, and up to $750 to the right buyer.

Rebuilding the box is the easy part, having one to rebuild is not. what Ef_frmnt said I think is on the money.

I paid 300 for my conversion. Wouldn't select first.
Rebuild cost 500 for me but I supplied kit and synchros

It's 4 bolts and a heap of roller bearings.
It's not too hard but it needs to be set up perfectly as the end float needs to be correct or bad shit happens
