Could start by saying if it is a manual or auto and a rough location where the leaks is at. Some people can give you good advice but they are not minereaders,

I don't know a lot but I have had a couple with leaks over the years. If it is just a few drips see if you can tell if it is leaking from the pan gasket. I had that problem on my '68. I just changed the fluid and filter in it last weekend. I replaced the pan gasket and then put in new fluid and Bars Stop Leak. No drips or leaks anywhere.

Many years ago I had a '73 that left a puddle. It needed a rebuild. I went through a quart of fluid every other week!

So, If it is just leaving a drip mark you may be get away with some stop leak, if it is shifting OK and you don't notice any problems when driving.

If it is leaving a puddle, you probably have a bigger problem.

Good luck!

People are trying to be of assistance. Not all of us have outstanding language skills. Please refrain from calling other people names, especially when they are offering assistance/guidance or simply requesting enough information to provide some sort of reasonable answer.
