What are the little problems?
I have a fantastic engine in my 78 300D but really need to find out if my tranny is salvageable at a decent cost or if it's worth it to stick a rebuilt Adsit 722.118 in there for over $2k, or should I stick a 4spd in; then there's the issue of rust behind every wheel, eating up into the wells, rusty jackpoints, rust in the crossmember under the rear seat....

I'd love a W115 to drop my engine into. Enough that I've been looking around for one.
