Tow bars - any good? (Al's pic)

[amalventano@sc.rr.com (Allyn)]

yup, that was the $100 part donor for the twin:
http://scirocco.dhs.org/vw/pics/0-allyn/project/images/020314-160722-Z10.jpg
...which had a rebuilt 2L 16v in it (surprise!)
...which i made the trailer from
...which i sold the seats from for $140
...which i sold the tranny from for $130 (today, btw)
...which i got all the front suspension pieces from (for the rear of the
twin)
think it was worth towing home???
