Re: tow hitch for 72
pretty sure from early 60's thru late 80's the frames were the same width// best is to measure your frame width and go with the tape measure,you get the right width then it's just drilling a few holes to secure to frame

Re: tow hitch for 72
any pics of where the receiver exits the bumper? I want to keep the stock bumper and don't want the receiver under the liscense plate. It would be better behind it, then remove plate and shield to tow.

Re: tow hitch for 72
Year One sells a cup holder that slides into ash tray. I have one in my 72 malibu vert and another in my 72 Elcamino. Soon will get one for the 72 chevy truck.
