IML: Strange tranny conversation

["Donn Reese" <DReese@xxxxxxxx>]

I need to get the transmission on my '60 rebuilt since it only goes in reverse.  My first choice shop won't touch it and referred me to an older guy's shop.  I just got into an odd argument with him where he was adamant that my transmission has Park and said "I've never seen a transmission without Park".

So now that the "expert" has put a seed of doubt in my mind I just want to double check that I'm right, there is no true "park" on these cars until 1963-64?  I've been looking on the repair pages but they don't say explicitly one way or the other.....at least not in the fifteen minutes I've spent looking.

Should I be looking for another repair shop?
