Transmission Replacement? 200 1989

Hi,

I have a 1989 240 wagon and I have been told by two separate garages that the transmission has something "rattling around inside" and they want to charge me $1500 to replace the transmission. My car has about 175K miles on it. Is there such a thing as a rebuilt transmission for this model?, or will they just be getting a transmission from some Volvo at the junk yard and slapping it into my car. I am ok with spending the money because I am so invested in this car already... I just don't want to waste the money if it's a lost cause... Thanks so much for any advice. I am located in Brooklyn, NY.

Cheers,
Dag
