The PT Cruiser started in the 2001 model year. They were not being produced in 1998. I used to have a 2003 model myself.

With the vehicle only having a 1000lb towing capacity for the vehicle you would only have a 100lb tongue weight capacity so hauling a cargo carrier with 225lbs on it would exceed the capacity of the vehicle and the hitches that are available for this vehicle. There are adapters that can give you a 2" receiver but the downside is that adapters reduce the overall capacity of the hitch by 50% so you'd end up with too little capacity to haul your Vespa.

Thanks for the photo for clarity. The Rhino-Rack Fishing Rod Carrier - Locking - 8 Fishing Rods # RR574F won't have any issue with the curved crossbars. The 6.5 foot sections of the 13 foot surf rods should work very well for this application.
