Ripoff
Whoa, now that's a SERIOUS ripoff!!! And not any doubt about it, either. Even if it had points, back in the day I used to replace points, plugs, and condenser on various cars for $20 or less for all the parts. Even with inflation, $175 is so far out I'm amazed they tried to get that one by you. Or is that supposed to be parts and labor? Either way, clearly a crooked shop.
In my case, I suspect a minor ripoff but am not 100% sure. BTW, the entire job -- "Premium transmission service" -- cost me just shy of $200, supposedly included filter, gasket, complete flush and fluid replacement. The fluid was about $4 a quart. I only had them do it because I just bought the truck used and wanted to establish a baseline for any future transmission service.
