Footman loops
Were the mutt footman loops welded on or bolted? All of mine seem bolted on the 62.

Re: Footman loops
The later, at least my 64 and up, were welded. I have heard that some of the very early ones were bolted. Ken might be able to help on that one. There are a couple of other B numbered 151's on here if you can track those guys down.

Re: Footman loops
Well, OK, that is nice. Some kind person stole every one off the body at some point in the past I guess I can get some from Guy and drill them out.
It weird, on an otherwise original looking body with most everything still on it.

Re: Footman loops
Get hold of Guy Pizzaforatto, He used to have them and I think the bolt ons are different from the welded ones. The bolt on ones have a recessed hole for tapered head screws.

Re: Footman loops
I'm still working on this as the ones I recently purchased didn't fit. They will go in the big box of extra parts that takes up half my garage! LOL
