Default Tow Dolly....Mustang....

I just picked up a nice 87 Mustang GT......I need to get it home in about a week and I'm going to trailer it or tow dolly. Question is, have anyone put a mustang on a uhaul tow dolly, i am wondering if the rear bumper cover would drag or be close. Also good to put the front tires on the dolly and just put it in neutral ? Or shoud i get the uhaul trailer.

I have never ever seen a tow truck company pull a drive shaft before they tow a car.

i used a trailer when i moved my '85 'stang, but if you wanna use a dolly you should be fine, they have a fair ammount of ground clearance stock, if you decide to tow it by the front wheels pull the drive shaft its only 4 bolts to take out, might leak some trans fluid but whatever
