Drive a rivoted/bonded body shell type car over a few sets of railroad tracks. Then drive a non-rivoted/bonded body car with say 12-15 bolted mounting points and see for yourself.

This was one of my top two requirements for choosing an ERA over anything else. Massive rivots and excellent bonding results in a solid car. A friend has an early 20 year old Arntz Cobra thats totally bonded and rivoted too. Both cars are solid as rock and drive like real cars. What a difference.
