is this a fair deal

A guy messaged me that I had messaged about buying an A-833 and a Hurst bench shifter. He said he has a trans for $400. and the shifter for $200. I think. Is this a good deal? I need to ask him if he knows if the trans is ready to use. It is the pre-'66 one, with the different drive shaft attachment. I forget what that is called.

That would be the one with the 64/65 833 with the ball and trunnion flange which took the driveshaft with the ball and trunnion (naturally)

Never mind the question about the '65 4-speed shifter. I found a pic of one. Was there more than one style of 4-speed shifter used in '65?

One style shifter whether for bench or buckets
