"Pushin' the wrong button" for some reason reminded me of an old
joke. Must have been about '65, when our good friends in Washington
had the makers go to the same shift pattern. Seems there was this fella who was kinda mixin' it up out on the highway with someone who seemed pretty serious so he "just shoved it on up into R for race!" :-D BC On 9/7/2014 9:42 PM, Gary H. wrote:
Yes the same "Knuckle buster" description for the '65s. I put that ad in the "puzzlers" collection because I had not heard that phrase in a long time. Push button trans are more civilized, unless you punch the wrong button. LOL Thanks, Gary H.-------Original Message-------Not sure about the 65's, but the long Hurst shifter in the old Road Runners used to get sloppy enough that you would hit your knuckles on the dash during a vigorous 3rd gear shift !
