I'm not a fan of tattoos but I must say there is an exception now

Just out of curiosity, what sort of car did you use to tow the 1200 when it was just a shell? Is it a Sunny 2dr wagon? How did it tow?

It's a toyota KE70 "DX" corolla wagon. It would have been mind numbingly slow as a tow vehicle. They have a 1300cc 4k in them. They a sooo slow without towing. I'm sure Chris will vouch for this.
