Not good. But to be honest I've had a similar car once, even with discs on the front it was not a good panic stop ride. Probably because I had big and little skinnies on mine. It would roast the rear tires any time you matted the long pedal and set all four to howling when you got aggressive with the square one.

Yeah, a girlfriend and I bought that one from a junkyard in Passarobles CA. It was on its roof with an 8 and 3/4 rear end in it with a straight axle front end. LOL, it had front drums with no backing plates. We got it flipped upright put some tires on it and ran off to rent a U-Hall trailer. It was quite a day. Oh, it was a '34 Dodge 5 window coupe, Just the body, frame. a plywood floor, and the axles. It didn't even have the roof insert.

I'm not a rat rod kind of guy, but that is pretty wicked, especially with that power plant. I'd have to give it 2 thumbs up.

I eventually got mine to the point where it had the jambs painted and was assembled for paint. When my life took a different direction and I sold the car to two people. One bought the engine and trans, the other bought everything else. At least I got to drive it a few times before it was gone.
