    How much should I pay

    For an 86 m1008 pretty much perfect condition except the shifter needle and light is broken.. It is all stock except he said he put a shifter kit in it... But it felt like it had a hard time shifting I was thinking maybe the tranny was going.. But I dunno. By the way it has 56000 miles..
