maybe buying car. transmission problems . please help
 

i went to drive a 1990 black 240 today and the guy said he had the engine in tranny put in from his friends 240 becuase he did the sr swap. the engine has 116k miles on it. however when i went to drive it i had a hard time telling if it was in neutral or first becuase the gears are very close. he tells me theres a short shifter. also when i went to stop and push the clutch in at first i heard like a squeaking noise and when i had the clutch pushed in the gears were hard to move in between.. this only happened when i was sitting. i didnt have trouble shifting while driving. what do you guys think is wrong with it. the rest of teh car is in great shape and the guy wants a grand. if i can get it for 7 or 8 is it worth the trouble i may encounter witht the clutch or tranny.. what do you guys think could be wrong and what
