I would recommend posting pic here . Its not difficult. you will get better answers if you take the time to post images of everything. Since folks will be spending time to help you on value, the 30 minutes you spend to post pics will be a good acknowledgement of your interest in the forum.

Without seeing what you have no opinion on value will be worthwhile. Since there are lots of repro parts and incorrect frames ans engines you should post engine sn, case numbers, tranny markings, casting marks on the frame and other good details.

Good luck.

pics must be smaller than 250kb. crop them or just change the resolution setting on your camera to that size or less.
