Bill-V8V Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 It's funny how you posted about a car 2 years older than me vs. a car two years older than you :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ1o87 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 It's funny how you posted about a car 2 years older than me vs. a car two years older than you :lol: I'm fairly certain that if we both charged each other I would either A) look like that Bel Air or get lost in your gut. Either way it wouldn't be pretty ya old rust bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProspectorTim Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Interesting video and results. Too bad they had to waste a classic chevy like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_pappy Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Yeah, I love my classics, but the new cars definitely have the edge on safety. That '59 looked in really good shape too, too bad they wrecked it. Thankfully it was a 4 door. Bruce Know what 4 doors belong on? Two cars.

Marylander Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Could you imagine if they plowed that Malibu into something like an MGB? Now THAT would have been ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 I just ran across this on Youtube... Glad I did a search here for it. Pretty awesome! I'll take the "plastic" car thanks... hell I think the Malibu's better looking than the '59... Now the '55 is a different story... Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 amazing how much safer a new car is, when you'd assume that you'd be safe in the belair bc its big this shows that jsut not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Well, I do not fully agree with that video. Maybe in that instance, yes it is true. However, I would have probably have lost my wife about 6 months ago had she not been driving a older vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autocar Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Comparing those two are a big difference. 1959 is not really attractive right now, as the 2009 version hits in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
