Re: [FWDLK] Tranny update conversions

Just for the "record" - there *are* two cables on 62 thru 65 TFs.  One for
gear selection and a separate one for Park.  Some of the vehicles had
separate controls also (Park lever mounted somewhere besides next to the
buttons).  I have a 62 Dodge "Park" lever setup mounted under the edge of
the dash in my 59 Sport Fury - the original pushbutton cluster controls the
727's gear selection.
