me too. that sounds pretty cool. Hope you have better luck with the trans. I too struggled with shift issues for years until it got worse. I rebuilt it myself with just a few improvised tools. If you can put a MB turbodiesel in an old pickup, you can make the automatic work correctly. With new clutch packs and seals, its one nice, quick shifting trans.
