Slips when cold

1977 Delta 88 Royale. TH350

I've noticed a couple of times the transmission will slip when coming off a stop. Does it for about 1 second then it kicks in. Only does it when the engine is cold, and not every time. Maybe once or twice until ti warms up. Never does it changing gears, only off a stop.

First on the list is a transmission fluid and filter change.
