I can remember my dad down shifting into L when coming down our alley to put the car away. First time driving with him I decided I could do it too. Did it going a little too fast so chirped the tires some what. He wasn't all that upset but asked that I not try that again till I had more practice driving the car. '59 Pontiac 389 Tri-Power w/4-spd Hydramatic trans station wagon. He ended up selling that car, only new one the folks ever bought, when it started having problems with reverse. I think it was because we never changed the limited slip rear end gear oil in all the years we had it.
