Re: Best Tow Car
When I first started racing I used a 1968 Plymouth Fury 4-door 318, auto with 3.23 gears ... never had a problem ..

Re: Best Tow Car
I prefer 1962 300 H.... It featured a Aluminum 727 TorqueFlite much better than the cast iron older transmission used thru 1961. After that I
used 1968 to 1970 Chrysler Town and Country Wagons with 440 Engines 480 Torque @3200 as I remember. |

My coffin nose 1975 Matador S/W.Flat towed my original 1973 gremlin for 6 years.
360/727 with highway gears.Not a rocket but it got me there,mostly to NY National and Westhampton and occasionally Island and the Grove. |

GTX John.
Yes the 62' had the Aluminum-case 727 Torque-Flite, but the 60' 300F had the dual Long-ram intake. When cruising at 65 mph, it made an unbelievable sono-ramic sound. No swaying, even around sharp corners. Car was built like a Sherman-Tank. Gas milage like one too!! 7 MPG pc |

1978 c 10 pickup with the ball on the bumper / tow tabs on the car / lakewood towbar and freewheeling hubs. Race car transport at its best !!

Re: Best Tow Car
Vic,
Nice Tow car. What color was it. Thats the 'Key' But did it have swivel seats like the 60' Chrysler 300F. I know somebody is going to post that they had a Cadillac Hearse, or possibly a Cadillac Limousine (white w/white vinyl top). Could pick those monsters up cheap, and they made a great unbreakable 'Tow Car'. pc |
