You got a good deal, the housing without the 3rd member sell for $300. or more.
If you got a Sure Grip even better, it's likely a "489" case being it's a '71, another plus.
Highway gears, are they 3:23's?
The only set backs are the small bolt pattern axles, and smaller dia. drums.

SMOKING DEAL for where I live.
I paid $500 for a housing and axles (that I sold for $50) when I was too naive to narrow a $50 C-Body housing.

Good deal, I bought a complete 70 Dart 8 3/4 with 3.23 single in a 742 case for 325 BUT....had to pay 150 to get it shipped....and that was a few years ago, the price has risen since then.

I agree, you stole it for $500, housing alone $250-$300, third member $450-$500, I wouldn't sell a complete for under $700, even more for one with good gears!
Guys, am i retarded, or am i blind??????????????

My bad, your right man, if it's non sure grip, that's about right on the price. It's pretty easy to miss thing's like that when reading these threads, I stand corrected!
