“Push button shifting”

My aunt had that in her Dodge, plus giant multi-color tail fins, but I can't recall the model type.

I would push button downshift into red lights, then 1-2-3 upshift and zoom away on green.

You always had to be ultra-careful not to hit the Reverse button which was mixed right in with the rest of the gears.

No danger.

The iron case torqueflight was governor controlled, and didn’t feed any control pressure to the rear band port if there was any governor pressure. (in motion in other words)
