My grandad said cars back then (30s-60s) were overhauled every 30k miles and you were lucky if you got past 100k. Nowadays if it doesn't do 200k on routine maintenance then it's considered junk. I'm going to try to get the Miata to 300k and I'm halfway there......
As far as seatbelts, the ones in my Dodge truck are attached to the body, in the miata one side is attached to the body and the other to the seat, the Peugeot? i don't remember......
And for old timey car features, I've never owned one with a high beam switch on the floor, even my '79 Hilux was on the column. My truck has the vent windows though, I wish it didn't because they leak and the correct fitting seals are NLA. And my Peugeot (1985 model) has an oil bath air filter and it works quite well, I just hate cleaning/refilling it.
