Yep   ::) ;D

I actually poked around on the Thunderbird forum about towing [Tiger on open trailer] with our '65 when I first bought the 'Bird... was told emphatically "No", and referred to the Ford factory info which listed a surprisingly low towing capacity for a 4800# car with a 390-4V. I guess the unibody and comfy ("squishy"?) suspension were not the best set-up... possibly cooling issues as well. (Yes, I know that a Cobra is considerably lighter than a Tiger, but that looks overloaded and the trailer likely weighs more than what I had)
