Good points all.

I remember Dynaflow badges on Buicks...I think.

 

You're really pushing your luck with all the "pin up" pics today.

 

They probably towed that trailer with that Ford.

 

This better?

 

Not sure how that happened...



Must have slipped off into another dimension...

 

The original "flat pan" Hydramatic introduced in 1939, and then later the "slant pan" Hydramatics in the 50's were a four speed automatic trans that did not have a torque converter . Rather they used a "one-to-one" fluid coupling . Since there was no torque "multiplication", they had gear ratios like a manual trans. And they were tough as nails ! Which is why they were used in army tanks in WW2 and then became popular for drag racing in the '60s

 

Inger Stevens. another beauty gone too soon.
