I have a newer 3000lb ultralight travel trailer. I seriously want to purchase a 1969 thunderbird coupe and set it up to haul. I understand the tbird has a 5000lb capacity, but my mechanic friend is saying something about the compression with today's gas likely to destroy the engine? Any input? thanks, Tom
the car has the 429, is generally in decent condition, needs a tuneup and
probably new hoses, belts, etc. If the compression issue is moot, then ooking
for a welded on tow bar, and anything else that might be needed?
