95 z28

i've found a 95 z28 a4 with 64k miles on it and it needs a front seal on the transmission, that's the only thing thats wrong with it...what's involved in changing that, what would it cost to have it fixed? and would it be worth $2500 bucks for the car since thats the only thing thats wrong, the transmission is still good, just a pretty decent leak. thanks for any advice.

Re: 95 z28

spend 2,500 on the car, you have a v6 now so i would do daily driver on it. Save gas and money on getting the lt1 fixed. The 3.8 is more dependable.
