Hi Guys,
I just finished a 2 year restoration on a '71 with a 2 liter implant and everything came out well. The car now has less than 160 miles so I want to show it off at the Ohio Islands Put-In Bay road rally. This event is open to vintage sports cars only and NO big blocks are permitted (not that there's anything wrong with them, just to be politically correct). I'd like to trailer the car from my home near Cleveland to the Island ferry about 50 miles away. Those 2 wheel dolly trailers are available nearby, cheap and easy. Is it safe and harmless to trailer my car in neutral with only the rear wheels on the ground? Would it still roll over the odometer? Thanks for any input. |
