Default Towing question

I realize this is a dumb question but:

What are the correct anchor points when flatbedding a vette? I imagine there are holes in the frame like every other car. Any thing special I should know?

There are four anchor points, one at each wheel. The front ones are after the wheel and inboard of the wheel well. The rears are before the wheel and also inboard of the wheel well. You'll know you've found them because they look like about a silver dollar sized hole in thin steel and are oriented virtically like a coin on its edge.
