What is is with the rear brake bias on those old Russian cars?
It seems like there are a LOT of crashes with old Ladas hitting the brakes suddenly, then immediately slewing sideways into oncoming traffic or something else photo-worthy. |

At least the "classic" Ladas such as the Laika and the Niva have 70% front-30% rear brake bias, and instead of a dual-diagonal circuit they have the main circuit operating on all wheels while the secondary operates front wheels only. |

Alex on Autos is a good channel for new car reviews. He covers all kinds of cars, but he seems to focus a little more on EVs and hybrids and he's very knowledgeable about them.

bonkers tomfoolery Dart+Fury Frankensplice!
OK, the guy(s) doing the Cold War Motors channel have gone off the deep end:
They've cut the rear body off a non-rusted-out, running 1960 4-door Dodge Dart which happens to share the same chassis/frame/hard points as a more desirable 2-door 1960 Plymouth Fury.
They're grafting the back end of a rusted out Fury onto it. It's bananas, and highly entertaining.
Here's the latest video showing the "new" bodywork being lifted into place:
