Glad that you survived! What a terrible accident. A Lincoln Vs. Taurus was a pretty bad match up. The auto safety advances have really allowed alot of people to survive crashes they normally would have died in.
Comparativly, it isn't really fair to compare the '59 chev to the '09 Chev. Maybe a '59 Ford Vs. a '59 Chev would have been more fair.
Here is another crash test from the 70's.
I would prefer to be in the Galaxie/Impala/Ambassador.
The poor fella in the Pinto/Vega/Gremlin didn't have a chance.

I know there are afew Vega fans on here, so it is quite sad to see this one become a yellow accordion.
