If you have checked the fluid level, checked the kickdown cable adjustment is correct, checked the selector lever cable adjustment is fine, then i would say your box is going to need an overhaul.
I'm sure someone will add a few other things to test, but auto boxes are a bit of a speciality repair.

Hi pal -- keep the old clutch packs when the trans gets rebuilt, so we can see the damage. Chat soon....
