This is listed on Glamisdunes.com. Seems like a pretty good deal. I don't have the money right now or I'd consider it:

091 6rib 930 flanges. Trans was attached to a Honda. Fully built Dons bus box promax.

$2200.
In Tucson.

I originally had it built in Sept 07. It spent most its life behind an Ecotec in a small 2 seater.
On New years 2011 it chipped 2nd gear because a bad bearing. I had a new Weddle 1st 2nd input shaft put in along with all new bearings and seals. It was removed from my car in April 2011 and has one dune trip in a little 2180vw car.
It shifts great. It has always had fresh Synergear in it.
I am willing to ship it on your dime. I will crate it up.

What I know right now,

4.57 Ring and pinion
3.44 1st
2.25 2nd

I don't know 3rd and 4th yet

Forty, Chuck Jones Can Build you one cheaper than that an you know what you are getting. Not to mention with the Honda the failure point is 2nd and 3rd gear synchro hubs stripping teeth or the hub spinning in the Gear.

I figured if you spent $500 or more for a "core" transmission and then shipped it twice to have it built you'd have at least $700 in just a core. for $1500 more it's all weddle and built. I've never priced having one built so I was just guessing.

People on the Samba have had problems with Don's work and customer service.
