usually ill buy the whole camper,gut it,
then burn the wood and pile tin and scrap on the remains and then scrap it all for money back.
i usually pay 500 at most for the entire camper.........
and then get at least 300 back for the scrap.

that being said,its a weak 360 with a Really good HD transmission...imo.
so price it where you think its worth.

also,i saw bolton..were you referring to the tailshaft of trans?...
cause if so,then thats not gonna work inna car.
need a slip yoke.

also,from the pic provided,it looks like the head gaskets were seeping,
may have been run Hot before.
 
350 for the engine
200 for the trans or
500 bucks for both
I should mention that's about the going rate around here for a running small block. I have seen them lower, and much higher around the Denver area

I was shopping around here for a 360 to rebuild about a year ago. Ended up picking one up for a $150. Is there a VIN stamped on the pan rail?
 
At current scrap prices the only way you'd get $300 is fill it with old engine blocks

Yes it is a bolt on trans/driveshaft set up. Could be switched but most likely not worth it (?)

I've seen prices all over the map in the last few years. Miles good for the year, should be a good base to start with (?)

Don't know if there's a vin stamp on the rail or not. Seeing what its from is it an issue (?)

Personally I thought around a Nickle. But I've seen 440's around here go for that, so thanks to all for the input

The miles may be low but understand pulling a motorhome they are hard miles.. The engine is working hard pulling allot of weight, the rings react to the added cylinder pressure by pressing harder on cylinder walls creating more wear...
 
scrap is $3 for a hundred pounds around here

The genuine made in USA Mopar bolts are worth more than that to me.

True, but in my area this stuff is usually way over 125k
 
Motor home miles are probably mostly "highway" miles, though.
