![]() ![]() I recall here in NZ there was a 1939 Buick owner who firmly believed his 1939 Special would do 100mph and would not listen to reason - the engine would have to exceed 5000 rpm to do it - an impossibilty! Any more than the for an extended period is hard work for the babbit rod bearings. At 3400 rpm which is its realistic maximum it is doing about 67mph. From this we can work out that it does 510 rpm per 10 mph. ![]() In this case the info is given (engine speed at 50mph is 2550rpm). You can calculate the academic top speed of any car as long as you know the overall final drive ratio and the outside diameter of the rear wheels. I want to be able to pass some petrol stations! I'm happy to drive at 55 mph on a good road. That's all a bit too fast for me in a 71 year old car. ![]() It also includes the following: "The smoothness of the engine and general quietness of running encourage high cruising speeds and we found that the car willl quite naturally settle down to a genuine velocity of 65-68 m.p.h." It claims 82 mph max in top gear and 50 in 2nd. provide first-class illumination for driving at speeds of 60-70 m.p.h." The reprint is a review of "The Buick Straight 8 Viceroy Saloon." The Viceroy was the Buick Special as marketed in Great Britain. "Buick Cars 1929-1939" published by Brooklands Books, Walton on Thames, Surrey, England contains a reprint from "The Motor" July 18 1939. The handbook charts indicating fuel consumption have 70 mph in the upper range. If you are unable to determine which parts you need call us at 53 and leave a detailed message if know one is available to answer the phone when you call.The 1939 manuals and handbooks do not claim a maximum speed. Most of the Mopar's (Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler, Plymouth), International Trucks and Big Rigs in general are dificult at best to reference. These can be found by checking the engine compartment firewall, wheel well, glove box, and/or door jamb.
