check out the photos of the rear end of my BGT after hitting a wall
backwards at 55. The tank isn't even dented
the rear of a B is much more substantial than a Pintos metal work

+AD4-I was just watching a show about auto safety, and they were showing
the
+AD4-deadly design of the Ford Pinto.  The gas tank/rear axle arrangement
looks
+AD4-very similar to the MGB's.  Am I right in saying that an MGB might be
+AD4-somewhat unsafe if rear-ended at high speeds?  Or am I getting my
undies in
+AD4-a bunch over nothing?
