‘73 car
How does this rear tow hook bracket assembly come apart? The threaded tube is welded to the support bracket. The support bracket is welded to the tail panel. The threaded tube extends thru the tail panel into another bracket on the inside of the tail panel. Are they attached? How are they attached? Is the tube part of the inside bracket, or is it part of the outside bracket?     Thank you, Sean |

It will be challenging to dissect it. I can't image ever using that tow hook mount. I would leave it out if you are replacing panels |
