[Fot] How much do you think a GT6 could tow?

[Greg "Lunker" Hilyer]

Having towed home a Volvo 164 behind a Fiat 850 and then pulling a  
full sized Blazer out of a ditch with said Volvo, most anything is  
possible. But I don't think a GT6 could handle the tung weight of a  
[loaded] trailer. Flat tow with a tow-bar might work but no brakes to  
the towed car would not be so good. Maybe a tow dolly with brakes?  
Never seen such but it's doable.
A friend tows a Bug-eye on a rather large trailer behind a '54  
Bentley... He jokes about how much better the Bentley stops with the  
electrically braked trailer attached!
