Mine was a ‘53 Buick Super 2dr. Hdtop. Big old gashog,but well built.

Friend of mine had one of those for her first car...You couldn't spin the tires (we tried and tried) if you coated them with lithium grease...But it would definitely roll down the highway...Like ridin' in a stagecoach...

There was a way to spin the tires a little,but I learned the hard way that it was tough on the tranny. You back up & while it’s still moving,slap it up into LOW & hammer the gas pedal. Sure wouldn’t do that again now that I’m older & wiser.
