Mark as the old saying goes "it is only worth what some one wil pay" but around 3 to 400 is fair depending on condition.

Mr westwood is getting ripped off. :P Pick'n'payless wreckers down here sell them for $150. I've bought two for that price. I'm sure you could get
one cheaper if you looked. 1600 Kombi boxes are even cheaper.

Finding one without a rooted reverse gear,
and loose mainshaft bearing,
and worn nose cone,
and worn out shift ball,
and...?
is the hard part.
Remember we are talking about cars that are 32 years old(1800) or more.
An unknown core is worth zero to 50.
A quality rebuild is between 1000 and 1500 depending on parts.
Take your pick from that range.
If you are selling an unknown core try for 150.
If it is a great tested one try for 600.
There are many stories out there about bargains,
but 350 is a common story about fair condition used core.
