Isn't that what a Bricklin is for?(it has the high torque v8)and a
beefy frame to attach a trailer hitch.That would look cool a Bricklin
towing a Delorean on a trailer to a gathering.

Although that could be a hoax.

500+ Burger Kings), but after a bit of thought I figured I knew which
one. So I looked up the number and gave Burger King a call. The
manager answers and I explain I am looking for my wife and what kind
of car she's driving would he mind taking a look. A few minutes later
I hear the manager yell "Hey guys come look there is a Delorean
outside." It seems my father had come to help her and his only form
of transport at the time was the Delorean.

car and our Ford Escort Wagon and towed it to our favorite garage,
about two miles away. The Delorean had no trouble towing the car
until... He went over a speed bump and then had to stop. When he
started up again he couldn't pull the Escort over the speed bump due
to lack of torque.... Now this is where the story gets a bit
embarassing for us Delorean owners, The garage owner came out with a
special "golf cart" hooked up my dead car and finished moving it into
the garage...
