A friend of mine has a 3/4 ton with a 2 speed powerglide transmission. He says it's a factory built. Did Chevy make an automatic 54 with a powerglide?

No 1954 truck came from the factory with a Powerglide.

The 2-speed Powerglide was used in cars starting in 1950. It was used in trucks sometime around 1959/60.

In 1954, the only automatic transmission was the 4-speed Hydra-Matic. Most likely, that is what you friend is referring to?
