February '03:
A local transmission shop charged $850 to rebuild the AT on my '87 Westy...
I R/R'd the tranny for the shop to work on out of the van.  They ran into
quite a few unusable parts that had to be replaced, so the bill was a little
higher than the $725 quoted. They had the parts within two days.  After 1500
miles no problems.
