Default 1979 silverado transmission trouble
A friend gave it to me for free. The only catch was that the automatic transmission was a little messed up. It starts an runs but once you drive for a few minutes it loses power an seems to be in neutral. Does anyone know any reason why it does this? Any help would be great
