Worn V8 manual gearbox

SOLD

I've fitted an LT77 and this is my old box, I've said 'worn' because its noisy in 1st/2nd/3rd and reverse jumps out.
It has the bellhousing, clutch arm, pushrod, release bearing, clutch plate and cover.
The reversing light switch works.
The eye on the gearchange rod is for a gear lever with a plastic acorn, ie a plain metal ring with no round plastic bush.
No gear lever (I used it in the LT77 conversion).
The gear lever casting has been butchered, the front end with the 4 bolt holes has been sawn off (this had been done so it could be turned round to point forwards).
The plastic bushes (591353) on the rod between the lever and gearbox selectors were replaced and haven't worn yet, they could be removed and re-used on another gearbox.
The plastic end on the selector finger (622369?) had worn away and has been built up with weld and filed to shape.
The propshaft flange is still in place.
The rear mounting bracket is present but one of the rubbers is missing.
The speedo drive gear is present.
Externally its as you'd expect with a layer of black oily dirt and also brick/cement dust from some building work on the garage.
Don't be under any illusions, I don't think this box has much life left in it but maybe its still useful to someone for parts?
Yours for £10 and sorry but but you'll have to come and collect it from Strood in Kent, 12 miles from the Dartford tunnel.
