Auto boxes are a magnificent magical invention. I've looked at many YouTube videos, tear down guide etc, but still don't understand how they work!
Especially considering that they have been in use in commercial cars for decades and the technology is something you would expect in a modern car, such as a CV-Transmission (Constantly Variable - as found in Hybrids and Electric Vehicles), yet you have a 1950's Cadillac with it.
