Well, I also notice that neither car has shoulder belts.

I for one would not be very comfortable driving a 940 HP car at anything close to its abilities with nothing but a lap belt.

Years ago, I bought a 64 Galaxy 500 that the previous owner had replaced the carpet in. It came originally with lap belts that the previous owner had failed to re-install. My first project with the car was to re-install the lap belts.

They were in my opinion barely adequate safety equipment but better than nothing.

When I sold the car the next owner’s son flipped the car in a ditch. The mother of the young man thanked me for putting the belts back in the car. She gave me credit for saving her son and his friend who was riding along. (I had told them my story of the belts)

Not to mention the occasional catastrophic failure if you blow wheel cylinder on one of those pre-68 single reservoir systems. That happened to me in a '66 Dodge Dart.

If they want a high performance car why not just buy a new one? That car was not designed for that much horsepower. Most likely, it is just a shell of the former car.
