Default Tranny Swap Question

First off let me tell everyone that I'm swapping from a Manual tranny to an Auto tranny. I'm doing this so I can sell the car and get something different. The person that wants to buy it doesn't know how to drive a stick, so I figured this would be better. I'm getting a 98 LS auto tranny and $600 for mine.
These are the parts that the person has for the tranny.

tranny, torque converter, auto flywheel, tranny computer, auto. engine wiring harness, starter, auto pedal assembly from my civic, and the auto shifter.

I was wondering what other parts I'm in need of. Any info you may have will help alot! thanks!

well, the opportunity to sell it is now, and the vehicle I want is up for sale, so I'd rather do it this way.

I have experience with auto swaps and also auto to manual swaps so I know what I'm doing and talking about. My advice to you would be to sell the car to someone else or teach them how to drive stick. It will be very challenging to do this. It will require cutting, drilling, and alot of wiring which equals $$$$ if you pay someone to do it.

the cost of the swap and the tranny will be covered by the person who is getting the car. so I don't have any worries about that. I've heard that it's a pretty time consuming, frustrating, and costly swap. But if that's what it takes to get rid of the car, and they're willing to pay for it, I'm down for finding someone that is willing to do it. know what I mean?
