Ok here's whats up. There are dozens of 240s in junkyards around me with manual trannies. I was thinking of pulling them, rebuilding the trannies, and selling them as a manual transmission swap (with most of the parts needed) to members of the NICO forums (seeing as how there are many people pissed off about the sheer number of Auto 240's). How much do you think i should sell these for? im not looking for much profit, i just want to help a brother out, you know what im saying?

If that was my situation, I'd have the "Brother" pay for shipping, pay for what you pay for it, probably won't need rebuilding, and perhaps 50-100 bucks in handling coz those guys are not fun to take out unless you rip out the whole motor. Man too bad there's no 240's in sight in junkyards here.

depends how much you can get everything for. If you did full kits, that inlcuded everything you needed they might sell pretty good, but itll take time to get everything out of the cars, so charge maybe 150-200 over what you pay.
