How to tow a M6 LT1 car? Car dolley VS. trailer?
Will an F-body fit on a car dolley?
I plan to go and pick one up, and I'm wondering if I should rent a dolley from U-Haul or put the car on a trailer.
I'm sure someone here has tried this. Let me know. Should I just put it in neutral? Or drop the shaft?

how far is the real question...
personally, when i go get my formula- i'm dishin out the $300 for the trailor.
the nose on these cars WILL rub on the gound if you hit any bumps or uneven pavement

Dude, just fork out the cash and rent a trailer for it. When I moved from CA to NJ that's what I did, had the car on the trailer the whole time. Totally worth it because I didn't have to worry about the car scraping anything, no wear on the tires, ect.
If you do put it on the dolly, just leave it in neutral. Should be good.

So, the nose will rub? That's what I wanted to know. Actually, this one instance money is no object, as I have acess to a trailer. I'm just worried about the bearings, how long of ramps we will need, and the susupension moving on the car and it hitting the trailer siderails. It'll have to ride on the trailer for close to 18 hrs.
I didn't think asking if dropping the driveshaft was a dumb question at all. Some new car owners (FWD) actually mount external pumps in the transmission cooler lines so they can be towed in neutral behind an RV/what ever. ;-) I know those are auto's but I just wanted to be sure it wouldn't be an ordeal.
Please comment on suspension travel for a car on a trailer.
Thanks guys!

No worries. Like I said, my car was on a trailer that went coast to coast behind a 15 foot Penske truck over a period of 9 days. The only restraint was the car's brakes and the net restraints over the front tires. Suspension travel will be there, but it will be no worse than driving it on a road, and probably less so than that.
