Top speed 35 mph?... either he is baby'ing it or his timing is off.
They will run 55 all week long. They will do more but you will beat the bearings out of the motor.
I have a 29 roadster pickup.
Dad has put over 100,000 mi on his 31 coupe since he restored it in 1990. No garage queen.
He has a magnet on the dash "If you see this car on a trailer... call 911 its been stolen!"
