Lost the tranny down the back straight on Kansas Speedway.

I have a call into David Kee to send a shipping box for a rebuild.
Can anyone share their experience in getting a toploader rebuilt? Not sure whether to just buy a new one, get mine rebuilt, or trade in for a rebuilt one. For what its worth, the gears and synchros on mine look really good. Can't tell for sure, but I think I broke the input shaft where it connects to the mainshaft.
Any advice would be appreciated. By the way, have been waiting for over a week for David Kee to get more poly shipping containers. He said maybe Monday, 9/17.
Are there any other sources for good quality rebuild work?
Thanks for any help at all. Bob
