I have heard of them, and seen a couple over the years. Came out in 1957, gone in 1961. Didn't have conventional gears, sort of a hydrualic CVT, similar to the Buick Dynaflow. Troublesome, expensive, and rare. Not sure how easy it would be to find parts and rebuild one today.
Funny thing about them, they didn't have a 'low'. Just 'Drive' and a 'retard' position for engine braking.
Not used in any trucks outside of the El Camino.
