Rear towing eye pics

[grahamb]

For Aintree I need to fit a rear towing eye.

From:
(All classes) Towing eyes of adequate strength and size must be fitted to the front and rear of the vehicle. They must be painted a distinctive and contrasting colour. Cars of periods A to F and single seater racing cars are exempt from this requirement subject to a suitable towing point being clearly identified.

To:
(All classes) The vehicle must have a clearly identifiable towing point of adequate strength and size at both front & rear. A suitable point on the roll hoop will generally suffice for open single seat racing cars.

I'm looking for photos of examples, something I can make a copy of. Fiesta Mk1 boot floor isn't exactly the best place to mount a towing eye, so I need to have a look underneath to see where I can mount it to.

One or two coffees later, it looks like the towing point under the boot floor will be adequate.

I misread it as a requirement for a new rear towing eye.

I did wonder what you were worrying about as the standard ones on my Mondy have always passed muster. The ones on a Fiester don't look it but are pretty strong, I towed a Sierra out of a ditch with a Mk2 using the towing eye years back.

My cars light enough, hopefully the std underfloor towing bracket should suffice. I've ordered a couple of Tow stickers from ebay. Hopefully there isn't any regulation I've missed concerning the size of the font

I don't think it matters as long as they aren't on the windscreen Not got any TOW stickers on mine, but you can't miss them bright yellow against dark blue.
Hope to see you at FordFair

I shall be hooning around the track at Ford Fair with all the other Mk1 and Mk2 Fiestas. Not sure which stand to go on yet. I may just be parking it in the paddock
