Hmmm. Wouldn't that mean that Mopar vendors would have to produce
special 1 & 2 buttons, bezels, rear ends, etc., just for a short run
of remaining '56 Dodges ? Doesn't make sense to me from a business standpoint.
Can you support this with tech service bulletins, photos or other
documentation ?

Let me take this issue farther.
I was 16 in 1956 and an active member of a family owned Dodge Plymouth
Dealership in a small town called Robesonia Pa. We sold 600 to 700 new
cars a year and at the end of the model year Chrysler would add accessories
and change items that we had not ordered. I distinctly remember driving
our first 56 C.R. 3 speed too see how much faster it was off the line (being a
drag racer) in the last 56 model production we received seven or eight
Dodge's with torqueflite but no Plymouths. The five button cluster was
in the same housing as the four, but the 1 and 2 were across the bottom where
the low button was. I can positively say that they were factory
produced near the end of the model run! In about three weeks we
were receiving our 57 models and 95% were TF so they were now common
place.
