Default Value of a Mustang C4 case?

Just got my car back from ATO Transmission in Rancho Cordova, CA from the suggestion of a few individuals here. Apparently my 1969 mustang, someone had put a C4 case on my transmission along with a few other C4 parts which Jim at ATO says was wrong as only the 65 had the C4 transmission. He realized the part was wrong after he had washed cleaned and essentially rebuilt everything. He gave me the correct case for free and installed it on my transmission, and he gave me the C4 case. Since I have no use for it I figured I'd sell it to help pay for the next issue, new exhaust manifolds and gaskets. Thing is my knowledge of cars and maintanence is very minimal, so I thought I'd ask here if anyone knew how much I could roughly expect to get/sell the case pictured below. Sorry if this post doesn't belong here.

that could be worth a 100 bucks or more.

Just put it on ebay for 50.00 and see how it goes some drag racer probably has a blown up case that needs to be swapped out.

I certainly would not throw it out.

Okay cool. I mostly just wanted to make sure I didn't sell if for $50 or $100 when it was worth $250 or something. Appreciate the advice Gun!

I see one C4 case on eBay right now asking for over $300 shipped. The cheapest one is about $76, and isn't even clean. Most of them are in the range of $100-$200, and what you have there is definitely one of the nicer-looking ones.

Oh really? When I looked I saw a couple for around $50 and one or two just barely above $100. Appreciate the research Urambo!

Yeah, TBH I don't know much about how much these cases are worth, but if the going rate on eBay is any indication, $50 would be a steal. If you're in a hurry to get rid of it to free up some room, listing it for $100 or less should move it pretty quickly. But I think it's worth more than that.
