Is there anything specific I should look at? Or look for things that r tell tale signs that the trans is no good?

It is hard to tear one up. But the blocker rings can wear causing scraping in 2, 3, or 4 gears. Remember 1 or L and R are not synchronized, just large straight cut gears and may scrape a bit when moving. I'd also feel the shift for any sloppiness. Might find a leaky seal and that is easily fixed.

about the only other thing i can think of is look at the case. Massive abuse can cause the case to crack it can be hiden by lots of caked up grease however just inspect it otherwise they are pretty tough you can pull the top cover easy to inspect for damage. just remeber it's not uncommon to see low and reverse scracthed alittle since they are non sychro. Otherwise the other fellas hit the other fine points. Price shouldn't go over 250. unless it's brand new rebuilt or has other fancy stuff on it. good luck in your search you will be happy with a np435!!!Confusedupergrin::biggthumpup:

The pics look good. I think he is pretty negotiable on the price. His last post said "make an offer, you might be surprised".
