Glad to hear you got it fixed so quickly and from your description it sounded like it lost first gear.

I was thinking that driveshaft/rear action could have hurt something but did not feel like it would be in the trans.

Pretty surprising really...

I have never been inside a Metric and don't plan on it anytime soon.

Me and a friend rebuilt my 700R4 many years ago and these days I stick to a Powerglide.......Not much in there....
