I am starting back on getting my '51 starlight commander back on the road. I pulled it apart 4 years ago and went off on a number of tangents (grandchildren, aging parents, other studes, etc.). The original transmission stopped working a couple times due to dirt so I pulled it all apart to clean and paint the engine compartment and reseal everything. I have picked up a DG 250 M that I understand should have a first gear start. I see there are a number of differences and, since the 250 is in unknown condition, I wondered if trading valve bodies would made the 200 into a first gear start. I will be replacing some of the internals in my 200 but want to keep the car original. Any advise is welcome.
