Over 50 years I wouldn't say thats amazing, the chevy still gets messed up... the new chevy should drive right through the old one without a scrath :thumbsup:

Don't worry.. another 50 years and it will go through the new old chevy without a problem!

nicee, safety first!

You like 5 tonne, torpedo-shaped cars with no crumple zones?

i swear this is a repost. but regardless, it is pretty amazing!

Wow... so technology does make a difference...

3 threads in 3 weeks on the same topic :P

does it make a difference that the bel-air has had 50years to deteriorate?

or did they make a new 59 bel-air using the same techniques/methods as they did in the 50s?

AWESOME to see a vid like that, I've always wanted to.

I always roll my eyes when I hear people talk about new cars being tin cans or plastic and they feel safer in a big old car. I love musclecars and classics, but I'm not going to lie to myself about them being safer in any way.

I like how the windshield just pops out of the Bel-air
