Re: Off The Hook Pricing For 69 Tow Hooks

It was several years ago when I first started the restore on my truck, I was at a swap meet and stopped at a booth that had a few 67-72 truck parts scattered around. Had learned of the optional tow hooks for these trucks thru this site. Just for the *ell of it, I asked if he had any tow hooks for these trucks. Yeah, think there's a set under the table there. Lo and behold, there they were, just laying there with some other parts. Picked them up and looked them over. Good shape, no bolts but no gouges or dings. How much? $20 sound good to you was the reply. 'Bout threw my arm out of place reaching for my wallet, LOL. One of the best buys I ever made at a swap meet. Have never found another set for that price since.

Guess if not for that, my truck wouldn't have the tow hooks mounted to it today. I have never used them but they sure look good mounted.
