I've had a 58 which, earlier on I'd considered trying to protect from being rear ended. Understandably, flimsy bumpers and supports attached to 'unibody' sheetmetal isn't the best way to cover your ass, so to speak, and It was more important to me to get the car in shape mechanically, install an overdrive etc. etc. And now I hardly drive it at all (it's on the left coast and I'm in NYC).

This may not be the time or place, but it seems to me that with the wealth of experience present, the assembled skills and literally centuries (collecitvely) of time in/under these cars, we'd be able to design a simple but effective system to protect these cars from what's happened to Joe, and others.
