Carol,
I have a homemade tow bar that was made to tow Willy's and AMC jeeps,
and other "robust american iron". A freind (crap!... eieioh) and I used
it to tow his MGA. We chained it to the bumper and the bumper ended up
getting bent.
I think LBC bumpers are too delicate to be used as towing attachment
points. A bar made to attach to the frame or suspension may be
feasible, but the front wheel dolly is hard to beat (U-haul rents
them). I towed a 71 B from Minneapolis to Chicago area at +/- 80 MPH
behind a V-6 Astro van with no trouble at all and without LBC damage.
Regards,
Paul
