Anyone want to give me your thoughts on what it's worth? It's complete with backing plates, minus the pinion yoke and nut. It's dirty outside, but internals look good.

I had a 12 bolt, same ratio, posi for a 69 Camaro I sold at the Springfield, OH swap meet last year. It was totally disassembled, in a box but 100% complete. Housing was a little rusty, but not bad. The second the swap meet opened and before I had it completely out of the trailer, I sold it for $450.00. Could have easily sold for $600.00. But I wanted it gone, which is why I took it there. The guy who bought it acted like he won the lottery. That may be some gauge for you.

Mike, from the asking prices I've been seeing, that was a steal for him.

Well, we were both happy that day. When I take stuff to a swap meet, it's to sell the stuff. Not to show it off and drag it home again. I hope it worked out for him.

I have been running that sale through my mind from last year. I said it was 100% complete, and that was not correct. The assembly did not have ANY axle shafts, backing plates or brake parts. So it was housing, rear cover, center section, case/posi, all gears, bearings, caps, rear cover. So still a deal at $450.00. But $1300.00 for a complete Chevelle unit with disc brake set-up, Mosier axle shafts, and the desirable 3.42 ratio is also a good deal. I can understand why that guy was also excited.
