Even older makes are designed with Crumple Zones. aka Energy Absorption System.

Many Cars built in the 80's to the 90's have soft ends... the materials used for the fenders are much lighter than the ones around the cockpit

But driving a 70's made car nowadays is a lot safer since all the other cars around it will absorb all the impact, and the older car will remain more intact.

For example 1960-s to 70's MOPARS or Stangs.
