Your modern has crumple zones and even though the 7 column is rather upright it  could still get you.

Early seat belts were found to be not much use in a crash and in a 7 you would be restricted to a poorly attached  lap belt.

Drive your unseatbelted Austin Seven as though your life depended on it  Big Grin

Drive like you're riding a motorcycle.
