Buick Dynaflow
Buicks had a tranny in the '50's that was like that. They used a variable pitch torque convertor and no gears except for reverse. They were very inefficient and were slow compared to the Olds 4 speed Hydramatic. It's claim to fame was that it was smooth with no gear shifts. The only people that liked the Dynaflow were fat old ladies, as I remember.
