Manual to Automatic Tranny Conversion Feasibility 200 1984

I have an '84 244 that's a straight that's been sitting for over a year now (don't worry, run once a month) ... it's a manual with a bad syncro, gear grind, etc. Replaced the clutch to no avail. Can barely get her in gear now (even rocking the car back and forth, etc, etc... all the tricks). Was going to replace tranny en mass, but would like to know what I'm getting into if I try to replace it with an automatic. My sister needs a car badly, but can't drive stick as she is disabled, and if possible I'd like to put an auto in this one.

Thoughts, warnings, suggestions, Behemoth parts lists...? :)

Thanks,
Hannah C.
