Using auto trans fluid cooler as oil cooler?

hi everyone.
i recently began to transplant a w115 240d engine and manual tranny into my 75' 280. when i got the engine it didnt have a radiator/oil cooler. im sitting in my garage looking at my radiator from my 280 and thinking hmm i need an oil cooler and a radiator and i dont have any money.. could i just hook up my oil cooler lines to the automatic transmission cooler on the bottom of my radiator? that would save me a buck or 200.

this would just be a temporary fix until i have the money to get a good used radiator/oil cooler, and the temperature wont be getting above 80 degrees Fahrenheit for a couple months. is this possible? has anyone done this in the past? thanks in advance
