Anybody happen to know of an inexpensive source for this type of race car tow hook? The specific application is probably front+rear of a 914 track car that already has fiberglass bumpers which could be slotted if required. The one in the pic is $30/ea plus shipping and fab work so I was wondering if there are other options. I don't really have the tools to fab them from scratch.

You oughta be able to find a fab shop in Ca.that has a laser to pop them out.
Part'll take maybe 15 min's max to program,and 20-30sec's max to burn out.10 cents worth of material(1/8"steel) Most shops here charge 125-150.00 per hour for laser time. Do the math. If they charge you 1/2hour minimum,you could end up w/50-75 pcs. Part's only worth about 2-3 bucks in any quantity. 30bucks is to high for that part unless someones hand making it and your being held to some kinda minimum. laser is the best way to go. Ron |
