I agree with the last answer, I'm 23 now and I've driven my 1951 4dr deluxe as a daily driver since i was 16. Recently I was hit by a driver who ran a red light in a ford f350 landscaping truck with trailer at 45mph. Granted I only have shoulder and lap belts in it, but my girlfriend was sitting on the passenger side when we got hit and pushed up into a tree, the police officer said if we had been in anything else she probaly wouldve been killed and i wouldve been crushed and in the hospital. I got out of it with a concussion (from hitting the window with my face) and she was fine. I bought another one that I'm hotrodding now. we got extremely lucky but i still atribute it to the fact that we were in that car. so agreeing with the guy above me, it's definetly like driving a tank aomng aluminum cans, maybe look into some safety upgrades, new seat belts, disc brakes, things like that.

I'VE HAD ALOT OF 1960'S DAILY DRIVERS AND I FOUND IT WAS MUCH LOT DRIVING A SHERMAN TANK AMONG ALUMINUM CANS... -NO WORRIES!
