I have the printed out the two pages (61 & 62) of the 1976 owner manual
pertaining to towing.

It appears that some VERY specialized equipment is required for safe
towing of one of these coaches.

I suspect a decent towing company would have a spreader bar and some
equivalent of the rubber pad shown in the illustration, BUT the
various spacer block assemblies and wood block are probably special.

Would a dolly arrangement be okay for the front wheels?

Would what they term a "roll-back" be the preferred method?

I had permission to leave the coach at the RV dealer (towables only)
where I nursed it on Friday afternoon, but need to get it SOMEWHERE
before their close of business on Monday.
