69-72 tow hooks
 

Would anyone be willing to take a hook and trace it out on a piece of paper or construction paper for me? I'm going to take a newer set of hooks and try to reproduce the old look but I really don't have anything to go by and pictures really won't do much except for the bend. I would pay for the shipping. Thanks Jared.

I have a set of hooks here I could help you out with. Not to far away either.;)

That would be awesome!!!

Re: 69-72 tow hooks
 

I'll get them laid out for you tonite.
I'll do a tracing and a cutout.

Not quite sure how too replicate the slight bend besides measurements.

What ever you can do would be great.

Re: 69-72 tow hooks
 

As far as the bend, if you can just make sure the pattern to the pointed tip matches the cutout I can look at pictures and tell how far out the bend is.

I traced it out last nite. And wrote notes on it explaining the bend and other things.

I was thinking of something like a mold using tape but wasn't sure how that would hold up in the mail.

Would be nice too have a accurate way too describe the thickness's a certain locations.

I'm draft artist here but, looking for ideas too help out, that's why we are here.

That looks great. The only way to measure it would be a set of calipers. But the width of the cut out should give me the diameter

A search here shows others that have gone down this road.

Yeah I read that sometime ago. With the prices of these tow hooks there's no way I'm willing to give that much so I'm going to make my own by using a newer set to start with. I know all the laws of heating, cutting of metal so these will be for looks only but would probably work fine to use anyways.

Re: 69-72 tow hooks
 

Calipers would be the way too blueprint them onto graph paper with each and every increment and views of each side.

But not me I failed at art class;)
Hard to describe until you have one in your hands I'm sure others can agree. But I think you can get dang close with this template.

Glad I didn't do a extreme bend.:lol:

If your good with this pm me a addy sometime this weekend.
I wont get to drop it in the mail until mon. And thats mlk day.
