My '59 Imperial did that while driving home from a car show several years ago and blew up my mufflers. It turns out to be the condenser which was defective. I replaced it and have not had a problem since.

Also, white Lithium grease will last longer than any spray or graphite powder.

Remove the cable and liberly apply white lithium grease before you break the cable.

Try Farm Supply Stores, especially when conventional oil is on sale.

You are correct on first gear only. My car has no P.S. or P.B. nor outside rearview mirrors (I added two). For options, 413, sure-grip, AM radio, leather interior with black cloth inserts. I had concerns about the white top color seeing factory promo cars having a black top with a red exterior...

I own a '62 300 Sport Convertible with a 3-speed manual transmission. I would have to double-check but I believe you are correct on it being a T-85. I do remember that the PontaMason (SP) failed a lot for 60 and 61 so Chrysler gave them a truck transmission. It is a non-synchro unit. Mine has...

I also know Duane and Tom (co-owners) and was there last week to get an Emergency brake level from a parts car for my '62 300. I did not get a fuel tank but a sending unit for my '70 Fury III ex-squad a few years ago. Nothing negative to say.

You will also need the car on a hoist or off the ground with a knowledgeable person inside working the pushbutton and the other with the cable adjusting it accordingly.

First, make sure the push button shift cable is adjusted properly. Look at the factory service manual.

Just in case.....my '59 Imperial did that but expanded two mufflers. We found that the "condenser" went bad and was replaced. If your car has points keep that in mind. That happened about six years ago and not acted up since. My mufflers were replaced by my local custom exhaust shop.

One thing you did not mention, over how many miles or years were the plugs in the cars.

Look at this website although I'm not suggesting these plugs as I run Autolite but the condition pictures and description remain the same. How do I "read" a spark plug? | NGK Spark Plugs

look at this video from youtube….almost to the end he has video closeup of both sides of the small block motor

1979 360 picture if it helps....

The "Certified" speedometer ('79 Dodge Magnum GT) I purchased acted the same way and it shortly after stopped working. I sent it into a speedometer repair place in Milwaukee WI. he rebuilt it and also purchased a new cable. My '62 300 Sport Convertible has not acted up yet. For lubrication the...

Will it have the same vibration while in Park and given same RPM's? if so start more basic like listening with a stethoscope to the items connected to the drive belts. If no stethoscope then disconnect them. If does not do it at an idle then put on hoist and give it some RPM's. Can't hear it...

times II and another plug to keep a fire extinguisher with old car when you drive them....my incident was with my 1959 Imperial, I shut off the car and the fire stopped.

Yes as well as you must come to a complete stop for reverse......but there are other rewards.....

Lets assume you checked for spark and removed the fuel line from carb and fuel pump is working. Then I would look at the carb. was it ever rebuilt? my '59 Imperial would intermittently not start, what we found was the accelerator pump was not big enough for its housing and would not call for...

I had that happen once on the '59 Imperial.....the condenser was going bad and cut out while driving...put gas into combustion chamber spark came back on in an instant and hobang....time for new mufflers.
