mystery tow hook and bracket

[Rob Baens]

hello Hanno,

nope this came original out of that wooden crate. Maybe the number on that crate tells us something. So all the 3 pieces, 1 hook , 1 bracket and 1 reinforement bracket

[Michael R.]

what series of Ford produced vehicles use part number: C49IQ-XXXXX ?

How does C49IQ - XX805 as an assembly fit? C491Q - XX805

For example, does it point towards a Canadian built, designed in 1944, with 95 hp engine, 101” wheel base, specialty chassis ?

Rob, are there any part numbers on the individual bracket parts themselves? Any FoMOCo, 1944, or FMCo 1944 then a part number?

Hello Rob,

I copied the first part number for the "..... Towing Hook Assembly" and came up with a hit on MLU http://mapleleafup.net/forums/showpo...9&postcount=10 this was posted back in 2017 by Issah2025 on 28-03-17, 05:38 .

The whole thread is about towing hooks

The kit may have been sold by LWD Parts https://www.lwdparts.com/product/towing-hook-kit/ the link has a photograph - currently out of stock - by the way.

LWD was owned by a late member of MLU Dirk Leegwater - Dirk's son Stefan Leegwater is now responsible for LWD Parts. The contact details are in the Netherlands https://www.lwdparts.com/contact/ Stefan may be able to provide more insight into the tow kit.

Kind regards
Lionel
