Good morning everyone!
 
I'm thinking about buying a 65 Monza convertible located in NW  Pennsylvania 
(350 mi).  It runs but is not driven daily. The seller admits  it probably 
shouldn't be driven this far without some work, so if I  decide to get it, the 
plan is to bring it back on a tow dolly.  So the  question is, what is the best 
way to load it on a dolly? From the  front or rear?  It's got a manual trans 
(4spd) and the rear  window zipper seams are not the best. It seems logical  
that it should be loaded with the front wheels on the  dolly. Correct?  If 
anyone is wondering why the tow dolly is the  weapon of choice here, U-haul has 
banned putting anything on the back of any  Ford Explorer. And according to 
U-haul, my 97 RWD Dakota does not have  enough balls to haul their auto transport, 
only a tow dolly.  I've used a  tow dolly before, so I'm fairly comfortable 
with one.  I guess my concern  is causing damage to the diff or trans towing it 
this distance. Any  guidance would be appreciated.
 
Ron
