Yes, the hood of the Bel Air incurred less damage. The Malibu submarined the hood of the Bel Air when the hood latch failed. The lack of hood damage is a small consolation considering you'd be killed instantly in the Bel Air versus receiving at most a twisted ankle in the modern Malibu.
I'll take modern safety engineering over nostalgia. If I can walk away from such an accident I'm perfectly happy to have to throw away the car afterwards.
Also, the '57 Bel Air was an ugly piece of shit.
