That's great! My '87 is the same color, and probably looked just like yours 15 or 20 years ago. It's always nice to see someone keeping an early 9k on the road.
Don't worry too much about the "weak" trans - mine has 324k on it and it maybe just started to whine a bit. Go easy on the shifts and burn outs and it can last a long time. It's better than the C900 trans IMHO. Do change the fluid though. You can do an okay just with the super cheap hand pumps from that popular online tool company, but a drain plug is a lot easier and cleaner in the long run (the Townsend site has instructions).
