That was something Dad did back in the early 90s to tow a small boat trailer, (sail boat or row boat). I have no intention of towing anything with it, and there is rust on the bar that is worse than the rest of the car. Towing stuff is hell on the clutch anyway. And besides...the only things I would be towing the car can't handle anyway. Thats what the Bronco is for.
I am going to take it off when I can get at it. Another guy from NJ with an 84 TA suggested that I keep the bar but ditch the hitch because it tightens up the back end. I looked at it and it is one whole piece...so its all or nothing. My goal right now is get it running....then I will worry about the tow bar. It will be gone sometime this summer. I don't know if you noticed but there used to be a car phone in it too. That is gone as well.
I will add more photos of the work I've done at some point. The seats were mismatched...the interior was a mess...blah blah blah blah. The first photos were at the start of the project in 2004, the last one was taken this past summer... another example...that broom handle holding the hood up has been replaced by new hood shocks.
