Ken--while an arbitrary life may not have been built into  vehicles,
certainly the perception of adequate has changed. I can't imagine  a car
coming off the line in Detroit these days with the amount of  unpainted
surfaces (undercarriage, cowl area, inside rocker panels, etc.)  that the LM
Corvair had.



And I couldn't have imagined twenty years ago that car bumpers would be  
painted over requiring the filing of an insurance claim every time you touched  
bumpers with another car---after all, that's what bumpers were for, no??
