<VV> flat towing a Vair

[J R Read_HML]

I happen to have just such a home made tow bar.  It has two plates which can 
be exchanged to match up to the bumper mounts for EM or LM.  It works fine, 
but I can not anticipate a future use for it at this time.  If someone wants 
it for $80.00, let me know and we'll work out a way to get it to you.  I'm 
in Glen Ellyn, IL.  It is HEAVY!  Probably way heavier than it really needs 
to be.
