1984 300SD - White House limo! Transmission question..

I purchased a 1984 300SD on Ebay. Picked it up at a great price, as it was just pulled out of storage and pictures were taken. Turns out a retired Capital Hill lobbyist laywer owned the car. It was sometimes used to bring people into the White House during the Reagan and 1st Bush era. Anyways, its beautiful. Has cleaned up wonderfully. Beautiful Dark Blue with grey interior. Even got the 86-91 (I believe that's the years) chrome wheels and tires in today. Here is the problem.

Driving it today, I noticed the transmission hesitating from 2nd - 3rd. All other gears seem to be fine. Is there anything special I can do to fix this transmission? I purchased some Lucas Transmission Fix..but I have heard different stories on how much to put in.

I may sell it on Ebay with a reserve, and include a transmission rebuild with the auction.

Thanks for your help.

Jason Quinn
