Hello Tim,
Great news that the '60 can drive! I know the feeling! I have brought a few
cars back to life and there isn't anything quite like that.
The automatic should be serviced and adjusted. The bands can be tightened and
the trottle linkage should be checked. If it is in good condition, that will
make it work like new. If it isn't, well the automatic is not that hard to
find, and it can be rebuilt.
