if it's a manual transmission nose it onto the dolly and pull it in neutral.

if it's auto you will have to pull the driveshaft and seal up the tailshaft housing on the transmission, you would be better off using a flatbed if it is an auto.

Yeah...as Karack stated.

I towed mine over 1200 miles with a dolly..rear wheels on the ground and a MT.

Also, if it doesn’t run, make sure you have a means of putting it on the dolly. I suggest getting a come-along, otherwise you are going to need a lot of guys pushing.

Not really...just gotta get a good headstart pushin is all. I did it with one other person. Wasnt that bad. My engine was dead in mine.
