How about......I used one of these to tow P1116 to the 1989 GT40 reunion at the Glen.

Built on a Ford E350 stripped chassis, 460 V8 and C6 trans. Has an air spring tag axle for additional load capacity. You cut the rear open and either install a roll up door or hinge the end cap, install ramps and a bulkhead to close off the cargo area from the living room and VIOLA! Instant transporter.

Have the unit I used for sale (I don't own it) but it needs a full refitting, has not moved since 1997. Stored outside a restaurant so has a few rodents, etc. Generato (mounted up front in the extended nose) needs work but could probably be bought cheap enough to make rework worthwhile.
