10 DASHBOARD Features From The 1970s That Would FAIL Every Modern Safety Test
10 DASHBOARD Features From The 1970s That Would FAIL Every Modern Safety Test Pull up a stool. Pop's been working on these since before you were born. A 1970s dashboard was not designed by a safety engineer. It was designed by a stylist with a slide rule, a stack of chrome trim samples, and a thirteen-thousand-dollar budget. The result was a beautiful piece of mid-century industrial art that, in a 30mph collision, became a museum of head injuries. Tonight Pop walks you through ten dashboard features that were standard equipment in 1970s American cars and would not pass a single safety test today. Every one is paired with the year it was finally outlawed and the crash data that ended it. 🏁 Subscribe and pull up a stool. Pop's got the floor. @popsvintagegarage Chapters: 00:30 - #10 Chrome Gauge Trim Rings 02:07 - #9 Protruding Chrome Control Knobs 03:45 - #8 Chest High Ashtray 05:24 - #7 Knee Level Ignition Switch 06:53 - #6 Glove Box Latch Projectile 08:28 - $5 Rigid Dashboard Mounted Mirror 09:54 - #4 Metal Passenger Grab Handle 11:19 - #3 Sharp Instrument Hood 12:47 - #2 Bare Metal Lower Dashboard 14:34 - #1 Unpadded Steel Bashboard Top
