[quote user="Modelcar"] ....Another incident that mixed things up in automobiles....The distruction by fire of the Hydra-matic plant in Mi., back about 1953 Pontiacs with Powerglade trainsmissions....Believe it even extended to Oldsmobile's using Dynaflow transmissions as well, and perhaps a few other different combinations in GM cars. Can't remember if it spread to others like Kaiser / Frazier....and a few others using the Hydra-matic transmission. <div style="clear:both;"></div> [/quote] Morning Quentin: Both Nash and Hudson used Hydramatics' in their respective models.  Ramblers of the newly created American Motors Corporation (AMC), formed from the merger of Nash and Hudson, also used Hydramatic's, I believe, through 1956 or 1957. On a side note, Ramblers were built by AMC, but between 1955 through the 1957 model year, they were badged as either Nash's or Hudson's. I believe Packard may also have used the Hydramatic as well for a time.  I do know that by the mid-50's Packard was calling their automatic transmission the "Ultramatic".
