WagonKiller,
Since the hydros were outlawed, it would be just as "correct" to buld a sedan dlivery with a 'Glide as the hydro. You're probably right; it would be difficult to find all the pieces for a hydro setup, nowdays, although that was the OEM transmission for Chevy pickups and panel trucks with V8s in '57, '58, etc... Thousands were made... An aluminum 'Glide with a state-of-the-art converter would probably outrun the same vehicle with a hydro, anyway, if you care... Those hydros had 4-speeds, alright, but the rotating mass was CONSIDERABLE. A manual 4-speed would also be very cool...
