C43 Manual Swap: Can you put your 722.6 into a donor SLK320?
I want to manual swap my 55 swapped C43.
But I would also like to have an automatic SLK320 for my wife.
For years, she's wanted a classic convertible Mercedes and the SLk320 would be a great car for that. My question is simple: if I buy an SLK320 with a manual transmission, can I not just use both cars as donors to swap the transmission, shifter, and pedal assembly between them?

Probably doable and a lot of work, but would need some head scratching IMO
