Two Speed TH350
Took my '76 on the highway the other day and I just couldn't get it to stay at highway speed. The trans kept slipping. I thought it was low fluid, so I checked and it was OK. Back on the highway again and it accelerated well, but it was revving really high. The next time I accelerated I paid more attention to the shifts and sure enough, I lost 3rd gear. So what is my plan? Is there any point in trying to fix this thing or is it off to the wrecker?
