Re: [DML] Towing the DMC

["David Sontos" <dsontos@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I towed my automatic DeLorean from North Carolina up to Virginia with a tow
dolly, backwards. The front suspension was stock so I had plenty of
clearance. Make sure you tie down the louvers. I did have to remove one rear
tire and put the spare tire on because the DeLorean rear is too wide to fit
in between the wheels of a U-Haul tow dolly. I had no trouble the whole trip
home, except for the regular attention the DeLorean gets going down the
road. Oh, and I was using a 93 Chevy 1500 to tow it, so your Dodge should
have no problem.
