I have never installed a tranny but I am willing and able to learn. DIY is the only way to go for me. Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to wait and see what a few of the others here have to say.
Let me clarify robot: Latest find not latest purchase.

As has mentioned already, you are the new owner. Have you looked around for a good tranny/ with warranty?
It is doubtful you have the tools necessary to do this job so start searching for a good mechanic, plan on resealing the rear main, the front tranny seal, any and all leaking t/case seals and of course service the tranny.

Since you won't be able to do the work, you need to get a couple estimates based on what I posted before along with doing a major service to get it current and a front drive shaft rebuild/replace if it hasn't been done yet. After doing this, then see what the total cost is.
If you have to have this work done, plan on around $800 to have it serviced, $250 for the drive shaft rebuild and the tranny replacement.
