'83 244GL auto shakes when accelerating from stop 200

i scored an 83 244GL automatic (wish it was a stick) here in minneapolis with only 96k and almost no rust this spring. i have fixed most everything on it that needed fixing and have been driving it daily. my one issue is when i accelerate from a dead stop, the car will shake at about 1700 rpm in 1st gear only, and if im really punching it, it shifts roughly into 2nd. Other than this, the car is pretty much mechanically perfect.

So what's goin on?
