A friend of mine bought one of those used in 1962. The salesman told him it was in such good shape, we could drive it to Kalamazoo (from Texas), which we did on our tour of the US.

It boasted a push button automatic transmission, brakes that wore out in the Smokies and vinyl seat covers that were hot enough to fry eggs. That poor Plymouth didn't last long after that, but it was good for a few memories.

LOL..I remember the Chrysler push button automatic transmission...My roomie in college had one...the most fun was to put it in neutral, rev the engine..then push the DRIVE button..and hope the tranny didn't drop to the ground..
