Re: Caribbean W/ tow ball

It seems to me that my own 1955 Caribbean had a bumper mounted hitch on it when I first got it back in 1973, but there was no pigtail for attaching lights so I'm not sure it was ever really used for anything. My engine and transmission are not original to the car either, but were replaced due to the dual carb set up being stolen in the 60's, and water getting inside the engine and ruining it. The powertrain swap was not necessitated by catastrophic failure due to towing.

So, will you be retaining the manual transmission or going back to a Twin Ultra-tragic?
