You all know if that Chevy has a Turboglide and not a powerglide it doesn't have low gear on the selector. It has GRADE RETARD which is only used on steep grades to slow down.
If you start out in Grade Retard and shift to drive it will squeal the wheels when it shifts for a few times and then the trans will scatter. I've done it and seen it done many times. Lots of luck keeping it original after that. I haven't even seen rebuild parts for a Turbo Glide in years.Duane S

What a concept!!!!! Don't know how much weight I'd save in the ol FERD, but pushing it backward everytime would definitely cut some of this excess girth I am carrying around on me. He, he, heLast edited by Oldf100fordman; 09-05-2004 at 11:50 AM.

Streets, someone at your age is lucky to be Walking, let alone pushing cars. I think that you should focus on getting more power, not less weight. After all, how much does a Tbucket weigh?Right engine, Wrong Wheels
In our neighborhood, 2 blocks down the hill was a gas station that (to me) all the cool car guys hung out there. 32 coupes, 33 & 34 Fords as well, a sweet 56 Ford Beach wagon that was setup gasser...
How did you get hooked on cars?
