I have actually ridden in that very Swivel Frame Power Wagon, it's a cool truck that belongs to a friend of mine.

As for the "crush zone" on the FC, you were so high above the opposing car that you would likely ride over the top. Never felt unsafe in my Dad's '59 FC170, but your feet would not likely survive a head-on.

Did you ride offroad in it, or anywhere/any way challenging conditions? If so, can you tell us about it? Plz!
Yes, we were offroad at Hollister (site of the Top Truck Challenge)
It's a Willock Swivel Frame. They were designed to overcome the limitations in articulation of leaf springs, as you can see, it has plenty of articulation!
It can go just about anywhere it's 60 year old motor can pull it. ;)
