Nah ... that ain't really braking.
It's just the effects of the normal suspension, bouncing along. The front will be in the air next.
That's the real reason why seat belts were invented!

970 Panamera Turbo; W221 S500L AMG Line, C215 CL500, W251 R350L AMG Line, plus several more now gone
And 375bhp with 495lb/ft which, certainly for 1960, was pretty impressive.

Always loved the 300 letter series, very innovative with what they achieved as well in terms of engineering.

Size, weight, cost, user content, performance. Choose any 3 :D :D :D

Yes, it's a 1960 Chrysler.
The gadgets collection inside is incredible, including cruise control, swivel seats and 45rpm 14-records changer!
I never knew such thing even existed.

I think you'd call it a juke box :)

Fair enough - I'll re-phrase: I never knew there was a juke box to fit an a car, as a factory option :p

Currently none
I must confess I'm not a huge fan of 'full' size American cars, although I like a few of the late 60's muscle cars and the C5 onwards Corvettes, particularly any of 'space age huge finned cars. I do however have a soft spot for one of their 2 door coupes and that's this one, which had optional disc brakes, but only on the front -

I'm a huge fan of American cars, and bigger the better, the big convertibles from the 60's I think look like mobile bath tubs :D
Have had quite a few and I am surprised I don't own at least one right now.
Got to be a Mopar as these are my favourites especially a '72 Challenger :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
