Trans question on 88' Volvo 780 Bertone 700 1988

Hey i got a question on the transmission for this car. Has anyone else incounted a problem with it getting stuck, not being able to shift it into drive, i can get N and R but will not shift into drive (auto trans 71 AW i think?) could be the gear shifter linkage or some thing inside the tranny. It has 218,000 miles on it.

I really don't have the cash to fix it now, and looking in selling the best Volvo i have ever owned. Would be a great car to drop a Mustane 5.0 V8 into. Anyone looking to buy?

    The AW71 is the same trans put into the turbo models 740/760 Sounds like you need to pull the pan and check for metal debris, if clear and fluid isnt burnt may want to rebuild the valve body or why not the whole tranny.
