I'm trying here on a long shot, but would anyone have a base plate for
towing a 1988 Mustang LX 4cyl, std. for sale?

Tks

hitchsource has it for $400

'cheaper' !

Oh, I figured that you were looking for a used part
which would be much cheaper and, as you stated in your post,
a long shot.

I thought it might be beneficial to add a part number to the post.
