Step down trailer hitch

dave11

I have purchased a vintage travel trailer to pull behind my 52 Hornet.
Before I design my own hitch I am wondering if anyone has a picture or two of what worked for them?

Hi Dave,

Here is a design from Ken Cates' website.

Or contact Lisa Mora, the editor of Vintage Trailer Magazine, she drives a 53 Hornet with a trailer.  I am sure she'd be happy to send you pictures of her hitch.  Here she is on a segment.

Hope it helps,

Is that vintage travel trailer a 1953 "New Moon" like in the movie, "The Long, Long Trailer?"  If so, remember, "TRAILER BRAKES FIRST!"
