Dump​ the Slim Jim.

Nobody's paying big dollars for these cars in 100% correct restored condition. Most potential buyers would likely be thrilled that the troublesome Slim Jim was replaced with a strong and reliable TH400, the automatic transmissions were a sore point on these cars and buyers will be hesitant to own one just because of that horrible trans.

Dump the Slim Jim and don't look back.
