Where would I mount a tow hitch on my 85? I have one I am going to use just dont know where would be the best place to bolt it to.

I will be pulling a very small trailer with 4 stickies and a jack+tools

Just make sure you measure 100 times and drill once.

I haven't installed one on mine but I looked into it and decided to go a different route. JCWhitney sells the Curt for $200.

Unfortunately I cannot. Wife has the car in Portland Oregon and I'm in Indiana. But I can tell ya where it mounts. If you look under the car it mounts to the frame rails. Just behind the where the fuel tank is near the bumper and about foot in front of the fuel tank. Here's the install instructions.
