Does NHTSA have crash data on vehicles made before 1990?
NCAP began frontal crash tests in 1979, so there is crash information available on vehicles staring that year. Information prior to 1990 is archived, and is not listed on the web. This data is available to consumers. Send an e-mail to crash.test@nhtsa.dot.gov with the year, make, and model of the vehicle to obtain the crash information.
