I agree with Jim.  No problem at all.  I have had my 66 Square and Jill's 67 Type 34 Ghia in the Woodward Dream Cruise.  That is 15 miles plus of 1st gear and idling in August when it has been 90 degrees plus.  No issues.  We do see lots of muscle cars and hot rods with boiling over radiators in those conditions. The aircooled VWs...never a hiccup.

Have fun and expect lots of weird stares and questions.
