After the second world war, Pete DiFranco and Paul Coletti began servicing transmissions together in Somerville, MA.
It was not until 1957 that together they opened their first shop- Hydramatic Sales & Service- also in Somerville at the time.
As automatic transmissions grew in popularity, the need for service was also increasing.
It was soon realized that obtaining extra core transmissions of each type and rebuilding them for inventory could be a new strategy to get vehicles back on the road quicker as transmissions could simply be exchanged in a matter of hours.
