Anyone know if this would fit the monaro? and attach to a cherokee jeep too (would need a towbar). Cheers or any other ideas apart from driving it.

the car behind is unbraked there for the car infrom#nt needs to be bigger

so unless you have a
H1 or maybe a H2 i would say no

if you want to know what it is like to spin two cars at the the same time when towing ask mrs splatspeed she was a pasanger at the time

i would recomend a proper braked trailer hired for the purpose

Im pretty sure, the ONLY legal way to tow such a car any distance, will be with a proper trailer.

All of the 2 wheel, etc devices are intended for recovery only, and as stated, go over certain weights, and they must be braked.
Most towbars ( and towing vehicles ) are only designed for a few hundred kg load at best.

Then dont forget also....if you happened to pass your test from around the mid-late 90's onwards, you may not even posess a license that allow you to tow anything !!!!

oh dear, will probably have to leave it behind then as don't want to buy a big old trailer as have no where to store it. Jeep would be ok to tow it, just need the jeep as it has 5 seats for when the wife comes over on the plane with the kids. scratchchin
