Old style VW beetles..

Yep probably not a good car for every day driving now but back in the 1960's when I drove mine sometimes it would fishtail on slippery corners and get blown around by semis going by. Big concern then and it would be now is the gas tank sitting out front but I don't remember it being explosive like the Pinto. Ralph Nader missed that one.

Can't remember if my 1958 Beetle had seatbelts or not. I really miss my '58 Beetle. That singing engine and exhaust, neat manual transmission.....G.
