1999 e430 sport

I was given a 1999 e430 Sport. Low miles. The problem is the transmission is in the trunk. Do I rebuild it or buy a used one? I'm more use to my E350. It's cheaper to rebuild this 1999 one. I will replace the plugs and wires. It was sitting for 2 years. I will drop the tank and new fuel filter. Is there anybody who can direct me on good decision making? I would love to rebuild this vehicle. I can work on the 2010 and up models. Any guidance would be helpful. TY.

First subscribe to WIS and second exchange your transmission for a rebuilt one

Any chance you can guide me on the Xentry diagnostic to buy? Remember this will be all new to me. TY

Maybe it's new to me! If you want to be a ***** and you were probably some infantry *****, not a Special forces man like me, your just too proud. I'll figure it out.
