So which car has the missing tranny/Tcase? The 320 or the 450? If you
swap transmissions you need to get the conductor plate reprogrammed if
these are 722.9s Not a big deal but will cost you some $$$
What goes bad on the 450s? I've read something about them but can't
remember

It starts and runs and drove on the trailer. Shows 120k miles. The dude had
previously replaced the oil cooler seals. Needs hood and bumper. The drivers
side doors are a little beat up. The rear hatch has a dent in it also. The air
suspension is also down but supposedly was fine a year ago when it got hit.
The impact bent the front bumper supports but fortunately these are bolt
on/off. I have to go back next week and pick up the identical 07 GL450. It has
no key or title, supposedly some divorce deal or something. The body and
interior is very nice but it’s missing the transmission/transfer case. This guy
bought it for parts just for the transmission. I’m wondering if it had a
balance shaft issue. He says he is not really sure but supposedly leaked oil.
No telling. Wondering if it’s worth putting a transmission back in it, getting
a title for it and getting a key. Then would have to source the parts for the
320. Will look more into the 450 when I get it home. As it stands the plan is
to pull the body parts off it and swap onto the 320. That will leave me a whole
cars worth of x164 parts if needed down the road. Oh yea, needs a radiator and
probably intercooler as well. The neck off the bottom of the radiator appears
to have gotten broken off in the accident.
