I've heard it both ways. I'd remove the drive shaft just to be sure...

Always a better idea to trailer it, but if you must go with a dolly just back it on so the drive wheels are locked in. Then run the seatbelt through the steering wheel. I just towed my 87 120 miles this way with no problems at all.
