Default Hauling a 1985 XJ^

I have an opportunity to buy a 1985 XJ6. It will need to be hauled on a car trailer. My question is, are there anchor points on the chassis that can be used to tie the car down? Thank you for your advice.

Just tie the 4 tires real good with the trailer straps. Place the transmission in Park, and pull the emergency brake. It should be fine at a safe speed.

I trailered my '65 S type 800 miles one way and it arrived in one piece.

My '85 XJ6 has 2 towing eyes at the front of the car. I am not sure what's at the rear. When I bought my car a few years ago, it was a non runner and I trailered it for 150 miles with just the front tied down with straps. I got home without a problem.
