Ahem... (clears throat)...

For a rebuilt 5 speed transmission from Italy via IAP you will pay $2,290 plus a refundable $700 core charge if your transmission is still good.

Santo's Italian Car Service quoted me a price of $2,500. and said if they find anymore broken parts inside the price will go up.

Before you faint, here's the deal clincher...

I am getting new race-lightened syncros, forks and good quality factory parts installed. Santo said the factory parts are better/stronger than the aftermarket stuff. Plus, he's selling me a new aluminum flywheel and balancing it with my new Sach's pressure plate. Plus, he's repairing my exhaust pipes and broken stud on my manifold. Plus, plus, plus...

So, all-in-all it's a pretty good deal. Unless the price climbs way above the quote.
