Turboglide is what I was trying to think of. I was just unable to think of what they called it while I was typing it. I remember a friend had one in his 57 and we blew it up doing just what you described. I was lucky my mothers 57 that she gave me when I turned 16 was a 220 hp w/powerglide.

Funny but I stil own the house where we lived when I pulled that dam thing out when I blew it up. The floor is still dark where the tranny slid off the floor jack and dumped burntup auto fluid everywhere and even down the driveway. Boy did I get it for that one.

Funny you mention the $85,000 price as that is what he has a offer for it when it is done. Told me he was thinking of taking it. Too many cars and no place to store it. If I was him I would get rid of the little car/boat(brain fart again can't think of the name) he has and keep the 58.

Thanks for the reply
