New guy here with some easy questions

Jeeper
I recently bought a 1980 CJ7 for $600 off Craig's list. It has a new Holly Carb and newer exaust system, and purr's like a kitten. The tub how ever is completly rusted out. The guy I bought it from said he couldnt get it running and was about to scrap it. I got it home put in a few gallons of premium in it and suprised that with a fresh battery and gas it actually runs.
I have just found a late 70's tub at the local wrecking yard for $200 bucks. My Jeep is manual the new tub is atuomatic. Is this a hard swap to convert the tub?
I can turn a wrench and I take pictures of everything I take off so I know where it goes. But actually doing modifacations is my weak point.
Just looking for some actual knowledge from someone who's done it before. I'd rather spend the $200 and modify then spend $450 plus a 6 hour round trip to get the only other tub I have found.
Looking forward to stealing some info from you guys so I can at least sound like I know what I'm doing when some one asks me lol.
