This is a Draw-tite hitch Werks Great and tucks way under. Very tight clearance around the rear Mufflers, but it will work.

You want to put a hitch on a Corvette so you can pull your jetskis? Why didnt you keep your TA for that or buy a truck?

Very Nice! I need to get that "bowtie" for mine.

No pics handy of the hitch, but here's the first pic getting the hitch and the reason for the hitch:

Some nice trailers pictured here. Draw Tite makes a good hitch.

Yup just plugs into the hitch and I can fold the wires and plug up and tuck them into the back side of the hitch. Hey, It looks as good as those big bucks exhaust plates and is like $10 or $12 bucks. Looks like it is floating in there. Most people don't even realize I have a hitch on the car. They assume it is a exhaust plate.

Oh! one note. The reciever pin may need to be shortened and redrilled to get it in-between the pipes. the end of the draw-tite hitch is really tucked back under the car, that is why I went with that one. Plus it is the square 1" reciever (I think it is 1" or there abouts) There is another hitch for Corvettes on the market that uses a flat reciever and it sticks out too far. The Draw tite is a better hitch.
