for you folks that were around at the time, i can remember the 57 ford's big advertising push was for safety. they had the deep dish steering wheel, double door locks, recessed knobs and guages, and other items i forget. i believe it was kind of a bust, and car companies quit pushing safety as much. it was only through government action that we got seat belts, padded dashes, etc. correct me if i am wrong, but people generally did not want to pay extra for safety options and it took a while to come around. hjim
