I understand that to enter trials front and rear recovery points are required. Can anyone recommend a cheap, (and simple) solution to fitting a front recovery point to a 1975 SWB Series 3? Any help appreciated.

Hi Dick

To be honest you need to think about saftey
more than cost. The idea of a cheap recovery
point flying through the air scares me.

My series use to have the standard recocovery
eys that bolt to the top of the bumper, very very
strong and secure and im sure I only paid
about £25 for both of them.

Any good mail order company sell them
although I do tend to use Paddocks more than
any.

Thanks for the response, yes, I should have added safe as well as cheap and simple. The idea you suggested seems ideal as it doesn't seem to protrude from the front.

I did call Paddocks and they seemed to think what I was describing was a Nato Eye but they weren't made any more. I'll try some other stores and look at magazine ads. Do you know of any other good suppliers?

Thanks again.
