I was wondering if anyone out there has any pictures of a 55-56 wagon or sedan with a tow hitch. I am going to weld one up for my wife's wagon but I just wanted to take a look at one that is done to get some better ideas. Better yet, let me know if you know where I could get one.

Here is some pictures of the hitch I built for my car. I have towed a trailer for the

past four years in the mountains with some trips over 1500 miles.I use an equalizer

hitch from Reese to take the bounce out of the trailer.The hitch is 3/8"X4" plate and

box tubing. I placed a support brace to the bumper and hid the bolts behind the

licence plate.

I tow a T@B mfg by Dutchman. It is a 15" trailer weighing 1300 lbs dry and max 1900.

It is equipped with surge brakes. Very seldom do you feel the trailer behind you when

breaking only if a panic stop then the trailer brakes come on hard.

Here is a link for info.
