Like somebody said get the motor running first.If it is a blown head gasket,that wont stop it from running,but it gets water in the oil maybe and that scores bearings and can stop it from running.Also if its a blown head gasket running it will erode a place in the block or head to where it wont hold a gasket any more,or the head can be warped and do that too.If it erodes a place in the block or head thats what JB Weld was made for to fill that eroded place in,and it works for that.I think like some of the others that changing the fluid and filter in the transmission,looking for vacuum lines off of it,and maybe a modulater or something might fix it.They are kinda high on 500 for a junkyard transmission,keep looking.I think you may be able to get a rebuilt transmission for that much somewhere.Ask a transmission shop what they think about the transmission,dont just change it.Buying stuff from a junkyard is alright,but dont if you dont have to.Also that might be that light duty same as a Pinto C3 with overdrive transmission.Ask somebody that knows,but if you can put a transmission from behind a v8 like a C5 or C4 AOD or something it would probably not have any problems for a long time,and might even be cheaper at the junkyard.Seems like the better transmissions need a bigger torque converter so it might not work,probably wouldnt as new as that is you would have to have a computer that makes it work and I dont know if that exists.Or you can put a manual transmission in,would be better for you anyway if you wanted to pull something,like a tractor.
