Had that in my first Car, a 55 Chevy Two Door 210 Wagon.
Bullet Proof Engine and the Two Speed Powerglide, or as we called it “Powerslide” Transmission made it a rocket, not.
I did get my first Speeding Ticket in that Car, 35 in a 25.

Those were the early Powerglides with the cast iron housing. My dad had that trans in his 59 Impala. The only major problem he had with that car was when the trans "self destructed" at 50k. They were also very leak prone. In 1962 they redesigned a lighter and much stronger 'glide with an aluminum housing that was a huge improvement. Even though it's a technological "dinosaur" it's still used by some drag racers.
