Towing a vintage car?

[folivier]

Is anyone towing or has towed a vintage car behind their motorhome?
Thinking of buying an early 60's Chrysler and wondering if it can be towed. This would probably be a 3 speed automatic.
Another option would be a 60's Plymouth with a manual 3 or 4 speed transmission.
Also I would imagine I'd have to have a baseplate welded to the frame.
Anybody done this?

Haven't bought yet, not looking for a show car. Probably buy a nice driver condition so dings, etc. won't be a problem for me.
I do use a Readybrake now for my truck and Tahoe. Great towbar.

I wouldn’t think the automatic would take kindly to being towed four down. Perhaps the manual could but perhaps. I assume these are show cars that you don’t want dinged up? If so you might want to consider trailering it under cover.

I tow a '97 Ford Aerostar (rear wheel drive) with no problems and no miles accrue on the odometer - the transmission remains in PARK while being towed.

The baseplate is another issue. Make sure your installation is up to the task.

I use and prefer the NSA's ReadyBrake https://www.readybrake.com/store/c3/Supplemental_Braking_Systems.html It's given me great service for many, many years.
