Bump for the survivors of no seatbelts in cars with steel dashboards!
I recall being fascinated with the fact that my great uncle's '57 Pontiac HAD NO SEAT BELTS!
And that my grandparents felt that wearing seatbelts was dangerous because it would keep you from getting out of a wrecked car quickly. I guess when he started driving around 1920 you were at a lot less risk from a crash at 20MPH than from the fire that might come afterwards.
