Ford2custom.......no idea what it is worth, I have seen prices all over the place. With your Ebay experience just put it on with a reserve you can live with and see where it goes. I know what you mean about the bidding wars, sometimes we sell something or see something that goes way over what a new one would be. Dan sold something one time and it went over what he felt he could take in good conscience, so he told the guy to only send the lower amount.........bet that guys jaw dropped.

Denny, yep, it does have overdrive. I'm trying to convince Dan that these were good transmissions and to get an adapter plate and use it and the rear end behind the Chevy, but he isn't believing me at this point. I had a couple of cars with this tranny and it was really pretty tough and that overdrive made it nice on the highway.

Jack, you are right about us never wanting fordors back in the day, but suddenly they are a little cooler. I hope he keeps it simple and just cleans it up a little and makes it dependable, and he could do it for the $ 3K you mention. But I have known Dan waaaaaaaaaaay too long, and can see the wheels turning already.

Thanks all for the nice words. It's funny what 6 hours of scrubbing last night did for this old heap. It still needs a lot, but at least it is starting to look like it has promise. I've been researching parts like weatherstripping and suspension repair parts on line, and you can get a bunch of parts for these.

Now I have to move stuff around to make some room for it. One reason we cleaned it inside and out was to make sure no critters were living inside it before we moved it into the shop!!
