Pick of rear pan without mufflers / trailer hitch

My new project (93 RX7) needs to be moved and I want to trailer it with the 65. I was hoping someone had a trailer hitch suggestion or a pic of the underside of the car with out the mufflers. I am going to drive 1250 miles and am not doing it without the 65. Any help would be fantastic. The car is light, stripped no engine or trans, seats etc.

I'm sure people will say this is crazy, but come on, it has the power, it's rigid enough and that car is light as crap without all the hardware. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I had to, though the tow hitch would look ugly as hell

Years ago, when I lived in the UK. I used to pull a caravan (travel trailer) with a Saab 93 Convertible. Everyone thought you had to have some meaty towing machine. the car pulled it like a train, never had an issue and was stable as hell.
By the way it was one summer when the kids were young and then I sold it. too many weirdos pulling caravan's I the UK. but it was worth it for the looks of disapproval from the traditional towing brigade.
