Gator, you are joking, right?

No stock Packard Twelve with factory body ever got anywhere near 120 mph. Some of the closed coachwork styles were close to 6000 lbs, the lighter open cars were of course a bit faster. The weight plus the frontal resistance, plus rear axle ratios picked to give good local performance all are limiting factors.
