“…And the roads today are safer for it.”. Yeah, they’re also ugly as a rat’s behind and have less passion than my toaster. And this guy claims that the Bel-Air didn’t have seat belts. While this car may not have, they were an option.
The ugliness is due to all cars being designed in a wind tunnel not so much safety, mpg and speed bro
New cars are safer? …..whaaat? says who?
The Bel Air would vapourize.
I’ve seen one of those in real life kill two people, against a nissan micra (very modern micra) Both in the micra survived, Volvo’s were very safe at the time, but compare it to modern cars, even late 90’s, you only fool yourself :P

ITS A SET UP. look at it
This is a manipulated test so that the Malibu wouldn’t get obliterated. The reason old cars were unsafe is because they didn’t crumple and transferred energy to the passengers. Meaning that the bel air would cut that sissy-mobile to shreds. Point in case http://fellowshipofminds.files.wordpress.com/2013/02/tumblr_lnt1h4mxcg1qg39ewo1_500.gif
Your post made no sense.
so that the Malibu wouldn’t get obliterated
Or you know, its a modern car with better materials and proper distribution of forces around the entire chassis.
The reason old cars were unsafe is because they didn’t crumple and transferred energy to the passengers
They also crumpled into dust.
Meaning that the bel air would cut that sissy-mobile to shreds.
Except it wont. Old cars just bend into nothing.
Point in case
Your point is to show the entire passenger compartment of another vehicle getting crushed?
Go home, Daivd, you’re drunk.
Go ahead and down vote it for ypur own good but are people really this stupid to believe that the engine and transmission were removed from Bel Air?
I guess the dummy in the bel air thought of this test….serves him right. 😢
Yes they are, i would kill someone to get a bel air!
This Video is crap, my 72 Blazer vs a 01 S10
OMG I THINK I HEAR CHRISTINE WAITING OUTSIDE MY HOUSE WAITING FOR ME TO GET OUT!!!
calm down! calm down!
ok, just call the cops, and if the phone doesen’t work, you sneak out in the backyard if she’s not there, then… YOU RUN!!!
i’ll distract it with Orange Juice! it will work on cars, trust me!
Whoever thought it was a good idea to do that to what appears to be a mint condition 1959 Bel Air should be flogged in the streets.
