Why won't it roll?
I should think that a set of tires on either end would be sufficient to
"roll".
If the rear is damages, it could be lashed onto a dolly backwards and
hauled with the front wheels rolling.

I second the tire, they work wonderful for support, and as an added
bonus keep the stamped pan from being damaged.

An OM621/615/616/617 engine rests well on the pan and the rear bell
housing adapter plate. However, setting the oil pan in a used tire
stabilizes the engine even more.
The car will not roll so that is not an option.
I will only be driving 50 miles. Hadn't thought about the tire- great idea.

Real 1080 no less.
Many TVs right now are 720 (1280x720) that rescale 1080 content. If the specs
don't say 1920x1080 its not a real 1080 TV...
For computer use you'll find most sub-20" monitors are 1280x1024, above 20" you
tend to see 1600x1280 or more.

That can be an issue, but mostly when the picture needs to be scaled
up or down. Most TV's aren't good at keeping a scaled image sharp.
I did overlook it though, since my experiences have always resulted in
a crisp image.

If you get the whole car, it might be wiser to rent a tow vehicle and a

Craig nailed it. They are both usable for pictures and video but text clarity
on a 'TV' is the common complaint. TVs aren't optimized for text although you
may be able to tweak settings to make it usable. If you are buying new, an easy
returns policy is probably worth considering.

In that case, you're only limited by the video card on the computer,
and most are up around 1680x1050 or more.

Before I bought a Dell 2405FPW for a monitor
You probably won't get more than about 1024x768 resolution using a TV as a
monitor, if that matters to you. Otherwise if the TV has a compatible (VGA or
DVI or HDMI input), it should work fine.
