I would ask some questions about the rebuilt tranny. A proper rebuild will run around $2500.00, more if you go with a good aftermarket torque converter. When I bought my 97, I was told the same thing. Found out they dropped the tranny and replaced a few parts, but ignored a lot of other stuff. These ain't cheap to rebuild, that's why I ask.
