Picture needed-Tow Tabs- 55 56 Chevy
 

Hoping someone here might have a pic of 1955 or 56 chevy tow tabs. I picked up a Lakewood tow bar this weekend with a setoff tow tabs that I was told are for 55 or 56 chevy, just trying to confirm the application. I'm not sure if they are Lakewood or NMW. I saw the NMW catalog page but TB-24 isn't shown. If anyone has a pic I would appreciate seeing them. I tried searching the internet but haven't found anything close yet, appreciate any help or leads to ID them. My direct email is [email protected]. Thanks sYc, Andy

Lakewood only made one set of tabs..they were universal.

Thanks paul, they are definitely not Lakewood tabs. After looking at them they may be home made to bolt to the frame and they have a rough cut along the edges The paint looks original and the same as the Lakewood bar, of course they could have been painted together in the past. The Bar is a Lakewood and even has the sticker and Lakewood cross bar Bolton pattern as compared to the NMW bar I have. I have included pics of the tabs I have from different sides and a top view. Also the pins which are not like the NMW and have a bolt head with LE on them. Appreciate any additional info, thanks guys, Andy https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...584-tabs_1.jpg

Those are NMW tabs. I am certain.

Okay, here it is. Remember the "Motion" tabs on thst 68 Nova? Well I think they started life as an early set of TB24s. The later ones looked a bit different. The early ones are like the ones you have Andy. Hope this helps!
