what is the production date of the car? 4/87 came with CLSD, those got for $5-800, you can put an open diff in but why would you want to do that, why does the car need a diff? did they take it out? or did they brake something? kinda rare to brake one of these

hard to put a value on these without pic's. but anywhere form $500-5000 value

oh and replacign the diff isn't terribly hard you need a good jack ro 2 and a couple of jackstands, you have to lower the crossmember to slip it in and out and it's heavy and awkward

Trade for it. Chances are that it's worth more than your PC if it's clean, anyway. My advice is to get it, take the diff off, and have it rebuilt.
