'93 Anni /w Bad Tranny :-( Fix it or sell?

[GammeR]

I have a 1993 SVX in great shape overall except that the tranny totally bit the dust one day as I was driving up hill.

If I were to sell it as is in Cincinnati, OH what can I expect to get for it?

A mechanic is quoting me $1597 (this includes tax plus parts plus labor so that's the total cost for fixing the car) with a used tranny that comes with a 60 day warranty. Is this a fair price?

I am not really sure what to do... This is a second car for me that I use to drive in the snow and I don't really need it right now since we wont be getting any more snow.

Any advice is appreciated.
