Yes the buttons are vertical near the left edge of the dash. I thought 
the '63 Dodge was the same? My folks had a '63 3832bl, 440 Dodge 
stationwagon. I don't relly remember but I thought they were vertical 
too. As I recall my '59 Plymouth Sport Fury had vertical buttons similar 
to my '64 but no park.
