Towing a VW karmann ghia

[Babaganoosh]

Does anybody know how to safely strap one of these down? I will be towing one about 15 miles for a friend. Would going off the front beam be the ideal point? X pattern or straight? For the rear would you go off the trans mount or at last resort the CV axles?

As far as the front, the beam should be the most solid point you can hook to, and I would cross them over. Rear of those I have only done by going around the swing arms. Probably not the best way to do it, but it is about the only solid mount back there, hell the engine is only held in by 4 bolts. I never cross on the rear, but that's mostly just trying to avoid putting pressure on any of the aluminum.

Why don't you just put it in your trunk?
