My first car was a '68 Chevy Bel Air and it had the floor mounted high beam switch. This was in the mid 90's, so none of my friends knew they put the switches on the floor. I used to put both hands on the wheel and tell them to watch me magically turn on the high beams with my mind
I miss that car, it was a beast.
Also, I had an '83 RX7 that had a pull out choke knob. You had to pull it out to start it and then it would automatically snap back in when the engine warmed up. Never had seen that before. Loved that car, too. Handled like a dream and was really fun to drive.
