CA rare NOS GM accessory tie-down - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Tuff Gong · 06-21-2013, 02:02 PM

I am not sure what the exact year these are for, but I believe they are fairly old and rare. I have personally never seen any like this before. They are NOS but do show light shelf ware. They have the GM logo with "mark of excellence" below. Would make a great addition to your rebuild.

70longhornCST and DeadheadNM have first shot.

$86 shipped

If anyone has info on this item, I'd love to learn more. Thanks.

If we can determine these are for our trucks I would like to get in line. Very cool parts!

Yeah, not an item you see everyday. I hadn't even heard of this as until today.

So Pete, do you know what year these are for? I still need to check the fit for you. I'll follow up when I do.

I don't Brian but these were originally sold in packs of six. One for each stake pocket. Here's another pic of a set I got on ebay just this week that have yet to arrive. The seller claimed the part # was d/c'd in 1977 and not superseded by another. Do you happen to have any others or just the two?

Tuff Gong · 06-22-2013, 05:52 PM

Pete, you don't need mine. Lol. You have six already. I only have the two. Do you really still want to buy these two? My price is a bit steep just for the pair.

LOL! I grabbed that set on ebay after committing to yours. Since I committed, I will follow through and have no regrets but thanks for asking. Who knows, one may break.
