Ron's 1970-6r Progress

Current status added tow hooks

I have currently added some towhooks,front and rear to the car.

I wanted a folding hook design.i seached the internet for some off the shelf pieces,and I did find some.Most were in the 150-200.00 range per piece.That works out to 6-800.00 for tow hooks,doing all 4 corners. sad.gif sad.gif

So,since I work in a fab shop,I designed my own on cad and whipped up a set.

All the support sub-structure is hidden. sawzall-smiley.gif welder.gif
I did a lift test on all 4 corners with an engine hoist,and everthing lifted fine w/o any flex.

Please don't get the idea that the hooks are mounted to the front valance.(it's fiberglass) Or the rear bumper.(It's fiberglass also)
