Jack:
Hope you get somewhere with this. I, like others was the proud owner of a 57 Belair with the Tubroglide. Mine didn't last long and I change it to a 3 speed stick. (yes I had to make a pilot bering). I do know they were available through 61. I worked in a Chevy dealership from 67-69 and a older transmission guy told me, that like several other GM new ideas, that by 61 they had it fixed and they were a pertty good transmission, but they had such a bad rep by then that no one would touch one. Good luck at the Valley.
