Toyota 4runner towing capacity

Looking to tow a vintage '64 streamline countess. Looks to be around 25'. Can this be done with my v6 4runner with 4wd and tow package. What do you guys think?

Thanks in advance.

Probably will do it, but you won't like it and it probably won't be safe.

Do you know the weight of the trailer vs. the towing capacity of the SUV?
There are a lot of unknowns here...
