This was in that 911 toolkit pouch I bought. Not sure it even belongs in that pouch. Please tell me what is it called and for what purpose. Or is it a 914 tool???

Thanks in advance!

911 assume?

No, they don't have one.

How big is it?

Looks like about 4" long?

The thumb screw reminds me of the electronic cover in the engine (but this is a metal/steel peice), but otherwise, I've never seen one like that on a 69-98 911. Might be the lost grail of 911 parts and worth $$$$

I'll keep thinking about it as it could be a tool that I've never seen (as you said)

That thumb screw looks exactlythe same at the spare tire hold down in my 911. The shape of the bar is different though....

It is 6.5" long and 2 5/8" at the ends. The thumb screw appears to be plastic.

It was part of a toolkit pouch that I bought from a friend. This was a thread about it.

The tow hook was already sold on eBay and the pouch is currently listed too. I researched the toolkit and found out it may have been provided to 914-6 owner's too.
