I'm curious! Has anyone out there in LBC-land had a tow-bar made for their
"darlings?"       

Note: I am trying to be ~practical~ here, not a "non-faithful" sort...

I do have AAA-Plus, but do not want to abuse it. We will be driving a car
that has not been on the road  for 2-1/2 years. (We got it going the "right
way" -- trust me on that one!)

Is there a universal towbar available for Triumph/MGA/MGB/etc. on the
market? Where would I go about getting information on this subject.

I have a ~custom~ towbar for my '69 VW Beetle and it has come in handy on
more than one occasion.

I'm thinking it might be practical to have one for the MGA, but don't have a
clue as to the best way to tow one. Would it be from the bumper?  (The VW
tow bar latches to the front axle, which is much less complicated than LBC
front ends, as far as I have seen.

If any of you all had one made, can you tell me the specs?

Please....I'm looking for info, here, and am not implying *anything* about
MGs or any other LBC!! (Secret confession: I've spotted a D**s*n 240Z  and
am considering obtaining until I find MY MG, and want a towbar to work on it
as well.

Any ideas??

Thanks.........Carol (practical as ever, and wanting to keep AAA happy, too!)

To send a reply: E-Mail the lists, or me direct at car@texas.net

Thanks, again!
