You can't just copy your Python binary around (which is what you'd be doing if you attempt to copy the virtualenv itself) unless the systems are exactly the same (and even then I'd be reticent to do so). Why not just download and compile Python 2.7 to the production server? You can install that Python version into its own directory separate from the system Python, and then specify the path to that Python when creating the virtualenv on the production server.
