Interesting.

I didn't know they were commercially available. We always used "homemade" stuff.

Here's the brackets, on the car:



At one time there were a lot of cars running around here locally with those same style tow bar brackets...

A couple "back in the day" shots:








And - since I still have all the stuff, I put a hitch on my GP for a photo op last May -










That's "how we rolled" back then -

Interesting the different shades of Orange. John, can you tell if there were other colors under the Orange on either?



The neat thing about NMW ws that they were able to use a similar tow bar for most of the cars and the chassis tabs were built to accomodate the same tow bar. For the record, I have had two different tow bar widths. The Narrower of the two seems to have been significantly more common.
