Have the original rebuilt at a good shop , I wouldn't replace an old worn tranny with an old worn tranny, that makes no sense

I dont have the money right now I am getting the 99 transmission for 200 and I am looking at 1000 too 1500 for the tranny to get rebuilt right now so I just need to now if it will work for now or not so I can get it back on the road
