Be very careful about check to make certian the transmission is in neutral. I have also seen what happens to an engine (not a Datsun or mine, but a VW). The transmission "jumped into 2nd" and the high revolutions caused by highway speeds pumped all the oil out of the engine, before it threw a couple of rods. Basically nothing usable was left.
Wire up a light bar to attach to the back of the Datsun and don't forget side lights.
I once saw a bus converted into a motor home with a sign on the side, "Car in Tow". Nothing too strange about that except that the bus was stopped in an intersection by an accident with a car that tried to turn left behind the bus. The car had run into the towed car.
