Re: pick up canvas back rope hooks
If you don't get some answers beforehand I can probably get you a picture but not for a day or two. You will have to make the hooks if you want stainless, or buy from ESM and get them plated. They were painted initially.

thanks les its the location of the hooks that's most important so if you can get some pics that would be grand.

Ties not fitted to base models.
Further investigations uncovered it was an inside job!!

Re: pick up canvas back rope hooks
I think what you are looking for is on page 5 of the ESM site in the 'pick up' section. They will need to fit halfway between the eyes on the tilt canvas. The simple hooks are not quite as I remember them, but my memory is not so good over small detail from over 40 years or so!

thanks for the help guys, interestingly I followed a pick up with tilt today from Mayfield east sussex to cross in hand but then unfortunately had to turn off as I was going to wait till he pulled over and then I could of had a look and a chat. It was a green one .
