I have a chance to buy a really nice 1978 280ce coupe CHEAP. It has about 100000 miles on it. Transmission is out according to owner. I just replaced the tranny in my 94 E420 myself so I'm not afraid of doin so in the ce. I want a car to tow behind my motor home as well as a daily driver. I'm thinking of installing a driveshaft disconnect for that purpose. Or even swapping in a manual transmission. Who knows what I would need to do a tranny swap to 4 or 5 speed? I believe the coupe weighs about 3200lbs, am I right? What do you all think? Wouldn't that be a cool "towed"? Anyone ever installed a driveshat disconnect in a Benz?
