Do you still run the Torqueflite 8 that year for the trans?
 
It's a Torqueflite, but I can't remember now if it's the 904 or the 727. And my car is sort of on the threshold. I know the 318-2bbl used the 904, while the 360-4bbl used the 727, so I'm sort of in the middle, having a 360-2bbl.
 
I'll have to climb under the car and check the transmission pan. FWIW, here's a pic that shows how to ID the tranny, if anybody spots an old RWD Mopar and has the urge to crawl under it and find out what tranny it has...

I am home again...maybe once a day I will share something I thought was interesting from German-speaking Europe
 
This is one of my favorite displays at the MB museum They have everything from displays of buses to race cars, and in the trucks area they have this 1980 MB car transporter, carrying a load of brand new 1983 MB. The glory days.

That's neat. The blue W123 looks to be exactly the same (color too) as the one my parents had.

Yeah, that is neat. The S-type up top looks to be the same color as my '85 380SE. Great car, too.

do they have the transporter they used to carry the SLRs to Lemans? That truck was super-fast (had a 300SL race motor in it as I recall)

How'd you like to roll up with that rig at your local Show and Shine?

I shudder to think what that combo would be worth. I'd be afraid to drive it.

More than you, me and Fintail put together and multiplied by 10.
