Re: tow hook question?
I'm pretty sure the three hole hooks were an option for the early 60's trucks (60-66) but may have been for the late 60's as well. Someone else who knows more than me should chime in.

Re: tow hook question?
Those three hole hooks from what I have heard are rear tow hooks, sold out of the GM catalog back in the day. John

Re: tow hook question?
Wow, the OP's hooks even have the Cleveland hardware mark on them.

Re: tow hook question?
Many of the GM accessories were products available elsewhere,just packed for GM with GM part#s. Those 3-holers appear to be an example of that. Cleveland Hardware most likely made the GM accessory hooks,just like Ventshade made the door window visors
