not mine!

318, 4 speed, steel sunroof...

Atlanta of course

That thing is a freaking unicorn!!! I can only recall seeing two like that over the years, one was gray.

This makes me sad. I had a rust free 78 318/833 OD wagon that got stolen from my storage lot about 3 years ago.  Still hurts to think about...

Wow, that is a rare find. Cool find, price not bad either. And it has a CB

Glad I'm not in GA anymore, I'd buy this in a second - all the factory air looks like it's still there too! 

Premier Edition with a 4-speed??

wow. 

Gah! It still there, what’s wrong with you guys? Buy the darn thing and make this ad go away. I want to stop thinking about it. I’m holding out for a wagon.....

Ditto on it being 900 miles away... whew. 

Never seen one with a 4-speed. Have only seen AT or 3-speed manual. The 3-speed usually with the slant-6.

Anyone know how strong that 4-speed is? Is it the same one they used behind the  /6?

Better yet, someone buy this so I can also stop thinking about it...

It's probably the A-833OD, right?  If so, decently tough, although the front bearing is kind of small from what I remember reading about these things.

Lots of things you can do to make them stronger. 

In reply to stan :

Plenty strong, and yes.  It's basically an aluminum case 833, but it's not quite as tough.  Will hold up fine behind a small block.  Gear ratios are widely spaced though.  

In reply to psteav :

Gear ratios WIDELY spaced indeed.  They took a regular non overdrive 4 speed, made 3rd gear an overdrive gear, then flipped the 3-4 lever over.  So 3rd gear is 1:1, like a 3 speed.
