No, it will peg at 85mph. Still on the top speed kick, give it up.

If you dont have the trip odometer it will keep going. It will go until the car runs out of air.

My 85 Sport Coupe didn't come with the trip odometer. I now have the gauges from an 85 Z28 installed. It does have a trip odometer.
Mine has power windows and locks. Not sure if it is standard or not.
