trailer restrictions

Hi. I wanted to know how much weight my 1988 735i BMW can tow. I can't findthe info in the manuals or online. I also don't see any metal sticker orlabel inside the door where Uhaul says it is. I may be moving from FLA to NJand need to know if I can tow ANY trailer. I was also thinking of renting atruck and towing the car. Uhaul said I can use one of their larger trucksand tow my car on a trailer with all four wheels off the ground. They saidthey would help me determine how much weight I could put in the car, if any.But I basically need to know if I could tow any size trailer with this car.I currently have no hitch. The car is in good shape, with 138,000 miles withregular service all these years. I had the front end totally rebuilt 3 yearsago. I've had it up to 110 MPH with no sway or trouble. I will also beputting on new Michelin tires before the trip. Distance is about 1,100 milesfrom Orlando to NYC area. Many thanks to anyone who can help.

Yep, my wife was telling me all about the amusment park. They used to go there... Best part of that area was the twisty roads.. My Bimmer would love those roads (at least until winter)...
