Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
I would laugh, but with the tow hook frenzy that is out there right now, I'm not too sure the guy wont sell them. Even though you can get that particular set at Pep Boys for about $5.99.

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
If the tow hooks that are in the photo are somthing you can purchase at Pep Boys. Does any board member have photos of what the original hooks look like?
Thanks Dan

Not a chance in the world that those are factory original.

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
The seller ended the auction and relisted them for $1 start and no reserve. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=8038650613
Looks like an honest mistake to me. My .02

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
Yeah, seems like a stand up guy. I'll bet he just got clobbered with emails on that auction.

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
Sometimes folks are quick to jump on a seller because of the Ebay reputation before they consider that the seller may have made an honest mistake. Glad to see you here harlyworkr.
Welcome from just up the road. Do you have more parts or any 72 Chevy specific parts ?

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
I am parting a 67 ½ ton and I have not decided what to do with the 69 4X4 I have. I am keeping the 69 LWB w/30K miles as well as the 70 SWB. I will however not list them on ebay so quickly. LOL

Re: Tow hooks on Ebay???
The '70 Jimmy I bought today has chrome hooks on the front. Looks like the truck is pretty original and not molested. But it also has a push bar and receiver hitch on the front so who knows. I though for sure they were aftermarket, until the above thread shows chrome ones. They look like the same shape, but haven't started the teardown process to get pics. Heck only had it for 8 hours and 5 of those were getting it home.
