Tow capacity

I am looking at a 1987 Foretravel GV with a Ford 460 V8. Does anyone have a rough idea of the tow capacity? Thanks, Bob.

Pusher or puller (engine in back or front)?

Sorry, don't have the specs, but the rear engine gas Foretravels were very prone to overheating and very poor fuel MPG.

A diesel Foretavel of the same era would be light years better if you intend to tow much of anything.
