The only thing worse for the classic cars of the 1950s was the demolition derby. Here's a bullet-nose Studebaker being T-boned by a Pontiac ambulance:

In lower frame is a 1958 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser! Easily $50-80K today.

The last time I went to a demolition derby I was thoroughly revolted. Everybody ganged up on the 1954 Studebaker 4-door.
