The frictions are beautiful. They never look that good consistently, so like 97SL320 said it was a highway van, but the transmission looks overheated from either heavy hauls, or long hill grades. The metal look black/burned, yet on a street car, or a AMG/600 car the friction faces are usually blue/black, and the half the frictions worn.

Now, you did not show us the frictions at the back of the transmission as they wear out fast on a passenger car. The B1 basket of frictions on a passenger car get very worn for lead-foot drivers, or anyone with a 600/AMG car. You can see that in the one of the YouTube....

The fluid that was used is great stuff...
