The report presents the results of structural acceleration measurements made during vehicle impact with a standard barrier. Magnetic tape records of the acceleration time histories have been obtained and used to develop the analyses in the report. The vehicles tested were: (1) 1968 Ford Fairlane 500; (2) 1968 Plymouth Valiant 100; (3) 1968 Rambler Rebel 770; (4) 1968 Checker Marathon; (5) 1968 Volkswagen 1600 Fastback; (6) 1968 Rover 2000 TC; (7) 1968 Chevrolet Chevy II Nova.
