Safety and our trucks

How safe are we? I know these trucks are made of much thicker steel than new trucks, but I am thinking about all the safety improvements made since then. I am not saying I want to add air bags and anti-lock brakes, but what about a collapsible steering column? I want to keep my '57 suburban as stock as possible, but I am thinking three point seat belts,front disc brakes, things like that. What say you, truck lovers?
