X frame and A …
X frame and A pillar were faulty designs. $100 for a seatbelt is worth waiting an extra week to buy a car.

guess it didnt get posted but as I was saying that you might not care how much people made back then but in the end phony wants to act like a know it all and think cars didnt have safety features because people thought they were safe when they were new. That wasnt the case it was money issues that prevented people from getting cars fully loaded.Thats why if you look at the cars 9 times out of 10 the avg car on the road then didnt even have a radio or heater.But people restore them and add them

do be retarded like …
do be retarded like phony. This test is flawed because the 59 has structural damage in the form of rust. The rocker panels makes up the body structure which is what the A pillar and the door pillars afix to for their strength. From them being rusted out the A pilliar had a higher chance of collasping than if it wasnt. This test should be thrown out but in the end as I stated safety has to start somewheres and that was better than nothing.

Milner, you sound …
Milner, you sound like it’s still the 50’s! Nobody cares about how much people made back then or what little features the cars had. These vids are about SAFETY, compared to the cars of today. NO comparison. The older cars, even though heavier, would not stand a chance with todays cars, as you see in this vid!

Oh well, I’m sure a padded visor and padded dash board would save someone from death while the roof is collapsing down on them. Sign me up for those splendid safety features!! LOL
