Michigan People Help Plz

So im picking up a 1991 n/a rx7 when I get my tax returns its in quincy michigan and im in livonia michigan. Im wondering if any of you have a truck and trailer that you could meet me out there the day I get it and take it to my house for some $$$ cuz It has some minor problems and i dont wanna overheat it the first day i have it or at all. Or could you suggest something to me cuz the drive is 1 hour 45 minutes and the car supposibly has a leaking t stat housing. Would I be alright pulling over letting it sit every 20 to 30 mins?! Thanks guys.

depends how bad the leak is if it is right at the seal just put som rtv on it and drive it back..

if I was on that side of the state I would help u but unfortunatly I am not.. otherwise get a u-haul trailer and load it up and go..

but yeah u could drive it back with the leak depending how bad it is if it is weeping a drop every 20 minutes then ok if it is spraying then no becauseu will never get the air out of the system everytime u fill up when it get low

I dont know how bad it is till I actualy look at the car but owner said its not to bad and I should be alright pulling over and checking the coolant often. How much does a u-haul trailer cost to rent for a couple hrs or day however they do it? Thx man appreciate it.
