They don’t build ‘em like they used to. Well actually they do, but only in China. This crash test footage from 1980 shows a Renault Le Car being walloped from behind at 35 mph. Pay close attention to what happens on the driver’s side when the impact happens. The front seat becomes the back seat in a hurry.

We’re just wondering how we can score a rolling concrete wall like the one shown in the Le Car video. We could mess some junk up with a unit like that!
