Hi,
Are there any visual clues (exterior) that will reveal if a gearbox has been recon'd or not ?

Normally they are painted with a fresh coat of silver

Nothing too bad but the gears are a bit sticky.
I think the selector might be going.
There is a dud selling one on here so I might get that one for when this one goes (I know it will)
