91 Camry Safe?

[davidl10]

I just got a 91 Camry. Its in real good condition. My question is, in a crash (side and frontal) would this car protect my family and me much? Just by looking at it the doors look very thin and Im just wondering if this car is strong at all or if in a side crash will my car get pancaked out?

Thanks!

Your car is as safe as cars of that time period were. Today's car with dual front airbags, side airbags, traction control, stability control, and antilock brakes are obviously safer. If you are asking about the structural integrity of the body/frame, then have someone put it on a lift and inspect it for rust. Rust can be your enemy in a car with a unibody frame.
