Transmission disengaged mid throttle

Some worrying problems with my 63 coupe.

Was driving on a twisty road around 80-100km when the transmission suddenly and completely disengaged.

Pulled over - used the stalk to change into P and R which worked fine but then when it went in D, the gears did not engage. A restart fixed it.

Anyone else had this problem?

And to be clear the car did not go into N...it was clearly in D.
