with 235x75x15's on it, with ALL that engine sitting on them, you could light them up as long as you wanted too. BUT.........
Most fun i had was with my older brother in a 65 Impala 2dr. Not a SS, but has a wroked over 327 and a powerglide ( for youngsters, thats a 2 speed automatic) just topped a slight hill about 40 and kicked it to 1st, front rared up, tires broke loose, instantly on the other side of the road, been 20 years and i think he has ridden with me once since then LOL
I loved the powerglide Had one in a '67 Chevelle w/283. No ball of fire but could make a good show. Yes, hitting the downshift back to 1st was brutal, produced a nice bark from the rear if you were over 35 mph or so...

Used to run some really squirrely back roads with that car, and discovered I could enter a curve a little too fast, pull the shifter back to low and trounce it, busting the back end loose and pointing the front right where I wanted to go. Then just stay in it and let eat, front end steered into the drift, rear tires spinning and smoking. God what a blast!

Discovered that outta desperation once when I got suprised by a 90 degree curve where I didn't remember it Once I discovered "throttle steer" there was no turning back

Oh yeah, you're right. One friend had a '77 Eldorado (425 I think it had) You could burn a new set of tires down to the belts if you were so inclined.
