[Roadsters] Towing with a tow dolly

[robert k. smith]

hi, well, i've flat towed my 69 2000, at least 3000 miles, over the
years.
ive never damaged the trans., or the bumper brackets. there are a few
caveats, tho:  never try to back up(always think ahead), dont turn as sharply
as your tow veh. will turn ( make more gradual turns),  dont go across
drive way entrances at an angle, as it might cause the steering wheel to whip
all the way to the right or left(you will know if this happens, as there is a
screeching
noise, and the car is hard to pull(i only did this once). you cant tie the
steering
wheel straight ahead, because the car wont turn at all.
except for the wheel whipping all the way, i think most of this advice will
apply
for a dolly.  best of luck,  bob smith  ohio
