That looked like a pretty nice '59. I kinda wish they wouldn't have crashed it.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years.

The fuzzy dice was a nice touch....
Pretty amazing the difference. I would have thought the 1959 Chevy would have held up, at least the roof area.

In the slow-mo you could see rust dust pouring out of the Bel-Air's frame.

I like old cars, but, I have seen too many of these to ever say "You are safer in an all steel older car than these plastic cars nowadays".
2 Thessalonians 1:6-10
In these verses, there are dire consequences for NOT obeying the gospel. What the world claims as "saved" isn't gonna cut it! Learn what it is, in an eye opening true story, "Muscle and a Shovel", by Michael Shank.

The back end of that 59 reminds me of the 59 El Camino my grandfather had when I was a kid. That brought back some great memories.
