I remember the highbeam button on the floor.  

My mom had the same car for most of my childhood.  A 1969 Dodge Coronet. 
It was a lime green.. Loved that car - especially when the exhaust rusted
out and was loud.  :)  Would love to have that car today.

It had no A/C, no seatbelts, and an AM only radio.

The good old days!
