I can tell you that I would not want to drive that truck much faster than 55 or so if it handles anything like I imagine. Dad's '68 W 100 will comfortably run around 55 or 60 all day, if the noise doesn't drive you to insanity first. The W 100 will go faster but after 55 or so the noise, handling and braking are more than I want to put up with for any length of time. That's not to mention the amount of fuel it uses at that speed.

Good luck,
John W.S.
