I would try a band adjustment and fluid change before condemning it. It's not hard if you work slow and take your time. I just did a band adjustment on my old Stude using a similar B-W transmission and it was easy. If you find an old Motor's manual or similar it will have a procedure that does not require the special factory tools, all you need is a 1/4" spacer (I used an allen wrench) and a beam type torque wrench. Don't forget to drain the torque converter as well. Clean all the muck out of the pan and pickup screen while you're in there.
If that doesn't work it may be time to consider taking it to a tranny shop...
good luck

here is the procedure
The front band you have to drop the pan to adjust, the rear band adjuster is outside the case near the top.
good luck,
