[Roadsters] towing

[robert k. smith]

hi all, ill have to say, in all the years and thousands of miles ive towed

my roadster, i havent had a problem with the brackets welded to the

body. i tried to be gentle when towing the datsun. i accelerated and

braked gently, and always looked and planned far ahead when driving

and towing. i guess if you feel safer, you can make a towbar to bolt

thru the frame.   bob smith> From: graemes at internode.on.net> To:
