Since you would be basically towing with a FFR '33 Hot-Rod, I would say the towing capacity would be next to nothing. You might be able to tow 1,000-lbs or so but certainly not a Roadster and trailer. We had a Serpent Express trailer that, with the Roadster loaded up weighed in at 4,000-lbs. I think that's going to be in excess of the '35's capacity for safe towing.

I'm not getting gray, I'm adding chrome....
“Under-steer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and over-steer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.”

Ray,
Thanks for the quick response. How cool it would have been to pull one with the other.
