[old-chevy-truck] Re: 2009 Chevrolet vs. 1959 Chevrolet
Yeah ; I wasn't happy to see them destroy a ' Batmobile ' Chevy as they were mostly scrapped from the 1960's through the late 1980's , being almost _unsellable_ at -any- price.. I hope all here realize that our beloved old trucks (and cars) are all 100 % _DEATH_TRAPS_ ~no way 'round it , nothing you can do to mitigate this sad fact .
