Can you guys tell me what the average safe top speed would be for any of the 1936 model cars (stock condition)? Now I know mechanical brakes have their limits and there were options for rear end ratios but in general how do they do in modern day traffic, etc.?

I ask because I am considering buying something from 35-38 and would like to have feedback from those who have experience with them.

thanks in advance.
