If only this could tow a trailor with my track car on that would look awesome

What is the towing capacity of a lude with a braked trailor?

Can't lay my hands on a manual right now to answer, but it does vary by model.
Bear in mind that the pickup conversion will have made the lude lighter, which in turn also reduces its towing capacity below what the plate/book says as well.

Aren't Hondas of that era by rule of thumb the same as they're own weight? So about 1250kg for a 4th gen?

I've been moving out of the unit I rented to keep my stuff in when I closed the garage 2 years ago over the last week or so and brought this back home today.
plans ? not sure really but my heart is telling me to mot it and use it.

And bring it (and you) to some overnight show/s this year, so we can have a good body lemonade up and chew the fat. :D
