R380 Trans.
Well, as you may have seen from my earlier post, I'm on the hunt for a D90. I happen to have found one not far from my house just yesterday and was hoping to find out a little more about the drivetrain on these beasts. So... what year did they start putting the R380 transmissions in? 1995? That's what year this one is that I'm considering. Also, the thing has 120,000 miles on it (ouch!). Is there any rhyme or reason as to how long the V8 lasts? Also, how much is a clutch kit for these things? I'm thinking it would'nt be much different than the one I just put in my '63 IIa; maybe a little more. Any comments onyone?
