Telling eye

Post by greenharleysoon »

Hi
Could somebody help me with the following:
I am looking for a front towing eye fitting for my GPA. Are these items being reproduced and if so by whom?
Also, is there any chance of a photo of the fuel can carrier bolt-on extension support bracket?
Many thanks for all replies.

Martin,

Check with Steve Greenberg, I thought he was producing some of the rope guides in bronze. Another individual may be Brett Mullins, he may have had them done in aluminum (cannot recall).

As for the gas can support, I am also interested in what this looks like.

Are you talking about the winch cable guide or the towing eye in the centre of the front bow? I have had the 3 winch cable guides (Front & 2 rear quarters) cast in India in cast iron. I have no spares at the moment, Richard Sanders had the last ones, but I am off to India on 5th November and could possibly get some more done if there is demand.

Bob,

Good catch.

Martin, do you mean the tow hook for the front (which I have an extra original) or the front rope guide?

TOWING EYE

Post by greenharleysoon »

Hi All

Many thanks to all those that replied and I do apologise for the "telling" eye - should have been towing eye.

Donovan - I am interested to hear that you do have a towing eye (in the centre of the front bow), is this part for sale? If so could you let me have the price to include postage to England. Information either in this page or as a private message would be welcome.

Again, many thanks to all.
Best regards
Martin
