Tough call because of auto tranny and ECU

If price is cheap, great. By cheap I mean $600. A rebuilt auto tranny is expensive and will negate any savings you have when this tranny innevitably fails.
The new top is good, and the headgasket is good (although that is a cheap repair), but that is also the kinda stuff that should be good.
I prefer manual tranny as it is easier to fix and cheaper to replace, as well as much more fun to drive.
Really tough call.
