Twin Ultramatic problem

I was on a club tour today with my 56 Patrician.Things were going well and the car performed good until we hit a stretch of winding uphill back roads.As I was going up the one stretch, the car downshifted and when it tried to upshift, it sounded like I was attempting to downshift a non- synchro standard trans(loud grinding like sound).I hit the highway for home and to add insult to injury, my drivers side wiper blade flew off the car during a downpour.Now, when the car shifts into direct drive, it makes and audible Gerrr sound whereas before it was smooth and quiet.
