Trailer Hitch

Looking to install a trailer hitch on my 72, would like to see pictures of hitches with standard bumper, also were can you purchase a roll pan hitch the one that mounts behind the bumper and you use the flip down license plate.
Thanks
JC

Here's the one that I've got. It's a Vally hitch. I thought about the license plate thing. I figured out that I could turn it over, move it forward a little and the receiver would be right behind the plate. It wouldn't be hard to do with one of these. I only hang it on the truck when I need to tow something anymore.

Thanks for the reply the one from early classics is the one I was looking for. I would still like to see the one from Hidden Hitch, were the receiver is the only part that shows below the bumper. 68W/sbc406 did the hitch fit the frame did you have to add bracing or just drill new holes?
Thanks
JC
