Mk 2 saloon towbar WANTED

#1 Post by johnnydog » Thu Feb 21, 2019 9:23 pm

A fellow Register member wants a towbar for a Mk2 saloon. Ideally the type with the majority of the iron work concealed behind the bumper (not looking like the Forth bridge) apart from the S shaped drop plate and the boot floor support bars.
It will be blasted and powder coated, so surface rust is unimportant
I have now exhausted my stock of them as I have fitted one to each saloon I have.
Appropriate beer tokens to cover the price / any costs etc etc.
PM me if you have any thing that might fit the bill.
Thanks

Not a Mk2 one, John, but there's an unused towbar for a Mk1 on ebay which must be a bit of a rarity these days!

Thanks for that Dave. I already have a brand new Witter Mk1 tow bar just like this ; the only problem with this design is that there is a lot of ironwork visible, but more importantly, you have to drill the rear bumper to mount the shaped spacer behind the towball.
That is something that I definitely won't be doing!!

Well, I thought there would be plenty available out there - no one with one that they are willing to sell.....?
