Bill - there are a lot of "improvements" between '81 and '85 on the 126
SD,
so that you would get some neat stuff if you kept the '85 and us

If that car was anywhere near me, I would have it parked in my driveway by
now. It would go nicely with the '83.

My thought is that you may want to use the existing TQ with the new tranny.
I'm not sure how you'd clean/flush it, but it should b
IIRC, the torque converter to crankshaft centering pin is larger on
the '85 than the earlier 617 engine/tranny combinations. If I'm
remembering correctly, the torque converter from the $250 car won't
fit your engine. Hopefully, someone with direct experience will chime

I don't have a carfax account but just buy the car already!!! Who

Just got a call from the guy selling the car. Turns out it is a 1985 300SD,
159k miles. He says the interior is pretty good, but needs cleaning and the
windows don't work exactly right. It is green with a green interior. My main
interest in the car is the transmission, which he says is good.
