The problem with being a brain surgeon is your own brain gets overlooked,OBVIOUSLY!They aren`t even the rare`72-only ones.They must be going on the nicest 4wd yet.You could buy a used winch for that much and screw the hooks($.02)

PT Barnum said it a long time ago...there's a sucker born every minute.

Kinda interesting that in the description, the seller covers EVERY year.

I guess if your fishing, use all the bait.

Yep. My dad taught me a long time ago; "There is an ass for every seat"

Don't hate the seller, laugh at the buyer

Jimmy72custom · 12-19-2005, 10:54 AM

That must be a record price for a set of tow hooks. Also quite a few different bidders.

bouncytruck · 12-19-2005, 12:33 PM

Sounds like it is time to start making reproductions and sell them at half that price!

Jimmy72custom · 12-19-2005, 09:08 PM

If the buyer and seller are both happy, it's a good deal.

chops333 · 12-19-2005, 09:32 PM

wish i had a truck full of them

I agree, I gave $300 shipped for mine, & now they have been sandblasted
twice, acid dipped, and Powdercoated, I wouldn't even sell mine for that
