Aside from dropping it out of the sky and stuffing it under that abutment, those didn't look so bad.

I WAS going to build a big ass ramp and jump my car through a hoop to see what would happen but now I don't have to!  Thanks Internet!

Well same with dropping it from the sky.

I'd love to see somebody build 3D models of old musclecars and crash-test them in various ways.  

It's never a 100% substitute for the real thing.  But they can get computer simulations REALLY good nowadays.  



It would cost a fortune to make 3D models as detailed & accurate as Detroit does today.  But we could probably learn a lot just from crude ballpark-accurate renditions of the most popular classic old platforms.

It would also probably be VERY useful to help us come up with additional stiffening mods for the old bodies.
