MG Towing Package???

[MgKid1974]

Anyone ever heard of there being a twoing pakcage for MGBs?? I am looking into buying a Hobie 16 which my B will for sure be able to pull, but there is no way to tow it home. Any ideas/suggestions??

Hi there.
This is the only place I have found them on the net. But I know somebody has drawn up for Rubber bumper version.

I'm having flashbacks of a certin CHiP's episode with a B loosing brakes going down hill towing Hobie.


If your going to do it make sure your brakes are good. Paunch is mighty old and fat now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

Sorry Stewart,
But shouldn't we always do that! No offence intended.

I remember that episode! I've never been able to find the clip though. Maybe I should resume the search now that sites like You Tube are popular.

Seems like I saw one once in a magazine that was mounted on a bracket mounted either on top of or under the bumper brackets where they mount on the body. I think it may have been home made. I would be interested in one also. I wonder how that one mounts in the UK link?

114.80 Pounds! geez, there has to be a domestic option out there to at least save on shipping.

Years ago I built one for a Bugeye and pulled a sunfish all over Hawaii. The looks I got, priceless.
