1930's stock suspension with a V8/auto

Thinking of buying a 30's vehicle, small block auto but it has the stock suspension and rear end, although I wouldn't be slinging it around or traveling more than a 100 miles from home base, I'm wondering how it would handle/drive/ride?
I can't drive or take a look at it because it's to far away, it would be a blind purchase, any advice/thoughts?
