Transmission Question

Unfortunately I don't have the time to do a good search on this. Anyways, my girlfriend bought a 1954 3800 series flatbed farm truck a couple years ago...from what we have been told it's spent all of it's life on our road. It has the 235 six and a manual trans. I know I can get the engine running, but I want to make the truck drivable for her until we can really "modernize" the running gear. Her plans are to do a 350/350 combo but have the engine look like it was a 1955 small block.

For now I was wondering what are my options for putting an automatic trans behind the 235? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
