blurry convertiblah might be interesting : Chevy Corvair , which would fit the movie's theme , as said to be unsafe at any speeds...

"bonus dashboard:" 1988+ Ford Tempo (without the optional driver's side airbag)

"bonus wrecks:" 1980-1985 Buick Skylark (upholstery narrows it to 1983-1985)

"bonus oldtimer:" Looks French, maybe?

It's actually one of the Tempo's big claims to fame:

Wikipedia wrote In early 1985, the Tempo became the first production American automobile to feature a driver's side airbag as a supplemental restraint system.

:wow:

Was that for the American market only ? Because i'm sure if i'd walk in a Ford dealership even in the Tempo's last days and ask for an airbag , they'd still be laughing today .. :lol:

Weren't the first optional (dual) airbag cars some GM cars in 1974?

not sure for 1974 but 1975 Cadillac brochure does advertise it , at least for the driver Link to "oldcarbrochures.org"

The key word is "supplemental". 1970s GM's airbags were a "Air Cushion Restraint System", meaning they were intended to be used as a replacement for seatbelts. Eventually as the decade came to an end people put down their cigarettes and sobered up enough to realize that didn't really work. The Tempo had a "supplemental restraint system" designed to work in combination with seatbelts.

Ah ok, thank you for explaining. Didn't know the difference before.

GM gets credit for installing airbags in production cars first, but they stopped after a few years. Ford started later, but once they started they never stopped.

same here , just thought that " Air cushion " was a fancy name for the airbag

now i wonder how many went thru it as i'd assume they were not wearing the seatbelt
