Whats a turbo 350 core worth?
I had an old TH350 taking up space and was going to take it to the recyclers, but instead I threw it on craigslist for the hell of it, asking $50. Sold it immediately and my phone and email has been ringing off the hook. Should I have asked more?

Out this way a "core" (in other words an unproven trans sitting on the floor) goes for $80-100Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

No, it sold, so you did good. You could have put a higher price on it and maybe got no response. Sometimes making a sale is worth chopping a few bucks off the price.

My take is that you got rid of it for about a half tank of CT gas plus opened up ~2 square feet of room that you could use for another treasure you might eventually useDave W

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
