Re: Tow Hooks: Post your foundry casting marks

The one forge symbol above resembles that for the Continental Foundry and Machine Co. shown here: http://the.shadock.free.fr/sherman_m...Trademarks.pdf

I know there is another thread re white tow hooks but to add to Larry’s post here’s yet another example. Prior to the 72 model year tow hooks as a factory option were only available with a painted bumper. For 72 the painted bumper requirement was dropped but hooks could only then be had on “K” models. I suspect at least some were painted white by GM and perhaps it’s a plant-specific like white paint accents in highlander blazers from St Louis.
