Watching the video at the 51 second time frame I do not see an engine in the 59'. The IIH could have made it more spectacular if they used a Corvair with some fuel in it.
I guess they could not get a crash test dummy to volunteer for the 59' because it did not have seat belts.
Nothing like killing 2 turds with 1 stone *golf clap*
Not sure that I would consider either car a turd. I'm curious -- what makes you consider the Malibu a turd?Quote:

Here is a '59 with the nose off and a straight 6.
