Re: Am I the only sane person left??




Isn't this the same video that has a large portion of the chevy roof taken out? with the engine and tranny removed, and a lot of the roof, the chebby is significantly weakened structurally. Naturally the auto that is heavier because it has it's engine and tranny is going to be more the hitter than the hitee. Everything from brake fluid to motor oil can be " spun" into whatever fits an agenda. I hardly believe anything I hear or read, and durn little of what I see! :-) .........MO

It's probably the same video that I've seen.  As I recall it was not
totally head to head but offset and more like headlight to headlight.  I
was surprised to see the damage to the Bel Air but when I look at my 63
Unibody car I can see how it would happen.  I have a lot of faith in
modern safety engineering.

This is off topic but I gotta know what you all think.  On you tube
there's a crash test between a 2009 malibu and a 59 bel air.  If you
watch it you can clearly see there's no power train in the old cheby.  I
pointed this out and about 90% of respondents made comments like "That's
irrelevant, the bel air is a death trap"  and "The engine would fly onto
the drivers lap".  I say these people are idiots at best.  There's NO
WAY that big old car is going to crumple the way it does with an intact
drive train.  For those of you who haven't seen this, please look at it.
 I would like as much feed back as possible.  People, tell me if I'm
crazy or not!!!
