trailering a 51 Ford?
 

Hi all,

I'm picking up a 51 next week with my open trailer.

Where is the best place on a 51 front end to attach the tie downs?

Thanks for any help.

The rear axle and front end not the body Tie the wheels down tight and she will not move.

rear straps or padded chains around the rear axle, chains or hook/chain around the lower "A" arm-le the body float a little as redneck says hold the tires and it will stay put!!
