So who makes a tasteful, practical tow hook setup

[Mr.VENGEANCE]

great looking hook!

Many thanks to Brett for the offer on such short notice and actually doing it while Chad and I hung around asking him all sorts of questions. Brett had the hook on and off the car more than 4 times to ensure that everything fit spot on and that the eye sat where we wanted it. One of the main considerations was the space between the eye and the bumper---enough clearance was given so that the actual tow "hook", when put through the eye, would have plenty of clearance so as not to hammer the bumper when attaching. Lot's of time was given to the details by Brett and it is a really clean setup. Thanks again brother---you got skills. Still hoping I will not have to put it to the test.

I was going to add some pics, but you've got all of the good ones here already. Thanks again bro---I really appreciate it.

Brett, Very nice looking piece!

Doug, you officially have a race car now!

Have fun out at Willow Springs. You know, now that you have a tow hook, you won't ever spin out!

I know this may not fit everyones taste, but I'm displaying this tow hook to show the versatility of designs.

This tow hook is designed with a little industrial, rat rod and vintage look. It is an Aluminum core with two 4130 chromoly sides. Each of the fasteners is a stainless steel threaded insert with bronze nuts on each side (please note that one side does not have the bronze nuts completed shown in some pictures).

It is called "The Racer - Vintage light weight low" and is designed for those who are not running a front bumper.

Enjoy and thanks for all the great comments about the "Renner Tow Hook".

Brett that is so sweet.

Doug -- you're done. That one is mine! LOL

[Damn True]

Man, that's a lot of hardware. Cool lookin though.

[wmhjr]

Now all you need to do is make the core slightly smaller, make the unit slightly longer, and wrap a chain saw blade around it...... that way you could really cut through the competition

[Nessumsar]

Ok, that is cool! I think it would be sweet to do the outer plates in bronze, then maybe use some alloy shouldered nuts and bolts? Get some pretty cool contrast going on that way.

Brett,

You seriously need to finish your contruction project and get back to the car business full time. I'd enjoy seeing the creations you come up with big and small

Thanks and the offer still stands for the sway bar stuff.

Thanks Brett. I've been anxiously awaiting this bar as I really wanted to get it on the car for this Saturday.

EDIT: Conflicting reports from vendor and supplier but sounds like people are trying to make this happen.

If I get the bar by tomorrow I will do a thrash install to hit the track Saturday. If you have nothing better to do Friday night (yea right) then I'd love to take you up on it. :p
