<VV> Towing a LM stich shift

[J R Read_HML]

First thought is - are the brakes rusted?  What about the clutch to the
flywheel?

If you know everything to be in good working order, you could flat tow it
350 miles.  I'd stay under 50 mph if it were me.  If you don't know, rent a
trailer, borrow a flatbed, or hire someone who does that for a living.
