Must be with the Hydra Matic that you cannot tow with all 4 wheels on the ground."

I know what the OP said but then the topic of towing a hydra matic was mentioned, and I responded to that from memory. I decided that I had better do a memory check, and found this: From the Motors Auto Repair Manual that covers 1935 to 1949, in the hydra-matic section: "There is no danger in towing a car in which the transmission is normal (not damaged) provided the selector lever is in neutral".
