Bill, did you just win those recently on e-bay?? I am looking for a pair of Nova tow tabs for 68-72 if anyone has a set they want to part with...

Rich </div></div>Yes I did Rich.The seller would not ship to Canada so MOSPORTGREEN66 bid on them for me and will send them up to me when he gets them. </div></div>

I would say the ones you got off ebay were originally yellow.



Still looking for anyone to comment one the Lakewood questions I posted, or even for someone to confirm the date of a Lakwood catalog with them in it, I would also like to see what dates people have for NMW catalogs. I'll post some later, but I do have a catalog with an earlier design of the TB30 for 1964-67 Chevelle. Interestingly enough, the TB30 was only lister for the Chevelle, then later there was a re-desing of the TB30 (the ones I posted earlier are the newer design) but they were then listed for both the Chevelle and the GTO. The instruction sheet I got with the revised TB30, still has the illustration which more closely represents the early TB30 design. I would love to try and figure out when the TB30 and other popular tabs actually began being produced. </div></div>Thanks for the info Paul.I was leaning towards yellow.Just have to get the right shade.

So your tow tabs were yellow on day 1 and black on day 2. What color is your car?

Thanks to the fellow who read this thread and sent this my way. Lakewood tow tabs, bars, etc.

Don't know if I'm chiming in too late or &quot;too little&quot; but I've got a set of nos NMW Ladder Bars and they were red-oxide primer.

Don't think they were meant to stay red primer. The &quot;correct&quot; yellow is the key IMO.

You saw and I got a set of NOS two tabs in the box from Watash Speed Shop in Lansdale and they were &quot;yellow&quot; Sam. You told me about them,do you remember Sam.
