Ford Toploader Gearbox

[V8RX7]

A friend died and I'm selling off his stuff - one of the items is a blue 4 speed toploader gearbox

He seemed to think it was worth thousands and I can see one on ebay for £2200 but I also see new ones for £1500

Was there something special about the older ones ?

Are some more valuable than others / anything I should check ?

Thanks

There's loads of talk, but not much info on prices.

Anyone selling says they are worth £2k anyone buying says it'll need a rebuild and worth sub £500

I can find a few sold on Ebay USA, not many in the UK
