Default 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.

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!!
