I know that around 1935 or so it was a very big deal when GM developed a way to stamp out a solid steel roof. They called it the turret -top and marketed it as much better than the fabric insert to fill a hole in the roof on most cars.
Have you noticed that almost 100% of the new cars in the last 15 or so years have an insert that forms the roof. Its pretty much across the board on foreign and domestic cars and seemed to happen all at once.
My question is why was this adopted, it would seem to be at cross purposes with roll=over safety .
Whats your best guess?
