I've got an original Volvo hitch for my 140 (1970...actually 'would fit '67-72 or maybe 73), but it isn't installed... it bolts twice right next the the fuel tank, and twice on the bottom of the bumper.

It is not a reciever hitch... just has a hole that accepts the ball of your choice. The 240 reciever hitches look tougher, but I'm not familiar with how they bolt to the chassis.

- Maybe it's the BW-35 that's limiting the towing rating. [140-160]
