[A/S] Towing with a car



I would like your opinions as to the suitability of towing a 1979 23'
Safari, with a gross weight of 5,800 lbs, with a 1977 Lincoln
Continental.  The car has a 460 ci engine.  I realize that additional
equipment such as hitch and transmission cooler will be required.  But
I would like to know if the list believes that the car will tow the
trailer without problems.  I know some of you tow with cars of this
vintage.
