that would result in a major loss of life if the belair was filled up. lap belts upfront if your lucky, nothing in back. dead dead dead dead dead.

It really is nuts. Everyone always says how the older cars are sooo much heavier because of more metal, which to them directly translates into it being safer. If that metal ain’t placed in a strategic safety location, you’re fucked.

Crazy crash, that’s front impact though, I wonder about side impact.

Same here, I love the '59’s. Sad to watch that video.
Did anyone see the '59 ElCamino at ADK Nationals with the original paint and “Kennedy for president” bumper sticker still on the back bumper?
