Default what lateral g-force can old cars achieve?

A modern vanilla sedan can do 0.9 g, maybe more with good tyres.
I saw a video on Youtube of some guy fitting a triangulated 4-link suspension
to some chrome-bumper car, and managed to get 0.52 g on cornering,
which seems rather poor. Must have had **** tyres. Sorry, I haven't been
able to find it again to get the details.
