So what's the consensus on the reliability and parts availability (slim to none is my guess) for the Hydra-Matic trans?

Did they have a good reputation back in their day?

Good core for a '59 Pontiac owner?

Boat anchor?

The one on the back of my engine I left at the JY, didn't want to pay extra for something I'd never use and also didn't know what if any market there was for them. It's ashame really, the thing had cherry red fluid in it.....
