Run it again with a ‘58.

*****************

A 1958 Chevy would have been just as bad ,, all the 1958-1964 fullsize GM's were deathtraps with that idiotic "X" frame... you can see in the video how the car nearly folded in half , shed the drivers door and allowed the dash to intrude far into the cabin...

Boy, that’s horrible. Thought the ‘58 was a square (ladder) frame.

My cousin had a ‘58 up on blocks in my Grandparent’s yard while he was in Vietnam for 4 years.

Lotsa fun for an 8 year old kid to play in. I pretended to take my first road test in it. (grin)

Yes, you can tell that will fold in the middle.

Wow, that is actually frightening. My parents had a ‘59 Buick Invicta with the huge fins. I wonder if my Dad knew he was driving a car with a wishbone like that.

Did the 1964 Impala which is so popular for restoration have that frame?
