Does any one remember this?

Does any one have one, two . . .  they would be willing to sell?


Thank You,

Joe,

Ahhh, the Airtronics Adjustable Tow Hook - 909511. I wish I had stocked up on them back when I had the chance. I never had great foresight.

Alberto, you are right good, but not even close . . .   ;>)

Tim, That is only the track, the hook was machined by somebody in or around the Michigan, Indiana and Ohio area.
        I wish I could remember his name or find the card that came with it . . .    ;>(

Thank You Larry!!

Actually, the hook was a threaded short piece of rod bent to 90 degrees and two matching nuts.
The hook above isnt Airtronics made. Ive had them all, including the releasables.

The "Hook" in my photo was made to fit the Airtronics track.
I wish I could remember who or find the card that came with it . . . 
Wish I had bought more than one back then too!

While I appreciate the input it seems that the part I am interested in is the part nobody is looking at . . .     ;>)
So without further adieu, a second picture to speak a thousand words.

Never seen just that part for sale anywhere.  It appears at first glance as a one-of part somebody just made.  It would be easy to make.

I have seen those made out of T-stock - You'll mess up a few inches of it before you get it right!

Enjoy the Day! Mark
