I learned to drive in a '49 Studebaker Champion when I was 10 - three on the tree, high beams was the button on the floor, and the starter was a similar button under the clutch pedal. I got to start the car and back it out of the garage when I was even younger than 10, and one time I neglected to assure that it was in neutral and tried to start it by stepping on the starter button without using the clutch pedal; it was in first, and I managed to do a bit of damage to the back wall of the garage. Boy, would I like to have a way-back machine and take a modern car to Santa Clara Valley, and the rest of northern California, in the fifties!
