Great pics! Those old cars were much more primitive, so I could imagine them getting in that situation. The weight distributions weren't always so good so they'd be prone to spinning 180 or 360 or more if you lost control. Plus those old brakes... had 2 modes: slow you down slightly or lock up and you'd slide uncontrollably. They were quite durable vehicles, though.

I do like the CIA explanation better. Cold war and all that.
