The transmission was rebuilt in 2007, with reciepts. When I got it, I noticed if I manually shifted to 1st or 2nd, it grinded and barely moved. So naturally, I never did that again. I don't race the car at all, and noticed some problems last night. I came home late, and when I put it in reverse backing into the driveway, I noticed it kept clunking. It was going back fine, but it would stop then start roughly. Thought nothing of it and went to bed. This morning, I go for a drive. It drives fine, until I get it up to speed going down hill. Seems like it's in neutral, except for a whirring I hear, I think from the back. I U-turn, and as I try to get it going up hill from a stop, it wont move. I put the pedal to the floor, and it surpsingly spun the tires(barely) and after I let up I was able to get the 1/4 mile home. Reverse is fine. My speedo also stopped working. Another odd symptom--When it wont drive forward, if I put it in park, it seems like it's in neutral, and tries to roll off. Strange.

Ideas? I just scored a job after 9 months of looking, and I need this thing running very soon. I don't know the specifics of the trans. I know my car has a 307 V8 and that the factory 4-speed trans was reconditioned a few years ago.

It has been doing this for a while and I still can't find out why it is doing the smoking.
