I had a start button in my first car, that was a '33 Ford Roadster. It was
old when I got it, IIRC, it had a '53 Olds motor. The response to pushing the
start button always seemed more gratifying than it would have seemed if I had
twisted a key. Although we are used to it now, Fords between '32 and '48 had a
steering column lock. You had to remember not to turn off the ignition and
coast to a stop. When I was 16, I traded that car for a Chevy powered '40 Ford,
I'm running on.
