Transmission fluid for a 55

[avlimited <anthony@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 1956 Imperial. I changed the fluid and filter 12 qts. I called two 
different transmission shops. One was owned by and older mechanic. He told 
me Dexron 3. I then called another one. This individual also told me Dexron 
3. I found out that the second transmission shop owner was in charge of the 
local Christian Rodders Association and loved older cars. so I used Dexron 3
