Nice

"The car runs and drives however the tranny will not leave 1st gear..."

Could be a NICE steal, most likely a stuck kickdown switch or solenoid.

Or the throttle linkage could be broken maybe?
Either way $700 is a steal! I paid $700 for a what used to be a ****ty condition 260E!

You have check engine? Not O2 Sensor? Hmm....I thought 88 was the first year they introduced the CEL. Before that it was just an O2 sensor light. Maybe not then? I wonder what the deal is?

Actually you might be correct, I had to buy a new cluster off ebay as my old one crapped out, but all of the electrical connections are exactly the same on the back with the ambient temp LCD being the only exception.
