Yes, I used to pull a 1961 Nimrod "pop-up" camping trailer, behind my
1967 TR4A. I had the hitch fitted in 1975 or so. Transported all my
worldly goods in/on the trailer a few times back in the 1970s.
In the 1980s, I used to flat-tow my TR3B racecar to local autocrosses.
Worked fine, so long as I switched back to my skinny street tires on the
front, for the tow back home.
I have also towed home the following acquisitions behind my TR4A:
'65 Spitfire
'57 TR3
my other '67 TR4A ("Lazarus")
'70 GT6+
I hear that TRs being used to tow other TRs was relatively commonplace,
back across the pond.
