Haven't had one but everybody I know that has good one swears by them.
It is about $800 to rebuild auto though I have seen quotes of $1200.

For $500 for a rust-free body, you can't really go wrong. The auto should be the least of your problems, if it's a 2lt, which I believe a '77 should be... A good engine reco is going to cost you $2500 upwards, depending on how much you can do yourself.
