    Powershift, FMX,
    Flight-O-Matic Parts

    Note: PowerShift and FMX transmissions are very similar / FMX name was used later. A 1970 Avanti (RQA) transmission would have an FMX designation but does not appear externally different from a Powershift and has no different linkage. There "may" be either a Vacuum TV pressure modulator or kickdown rod, but that's about it.

    Note: This section came about from some searching for an answer / The 65-66 cars used a cable controlled Automatic transmission. / From other brand forums and comments, the probable type was a BWmodel 35. No assurances yet, but this can help
