I can serve as a true testament that the 1959 Impala was designed as a 1 year only model because the tail on the back end created lift.
The car would begin to hop @ 75mph, I know because I experienced it first hand in my own car. Now aside from design, poor suspension and 40yr old parts had a lot to to with helping it, but none the less the first it happened to me it scared the crap out of me .. LOL
On the other hand, the tri-power 348cu in engine with a three speed box did a great job at propelling that land yacht to incredible speeds ..
