NMW Style TB49 Nova Tow Tabs

[PxTx]

I've procrastinated long enough, and the requests have been in for a few years. It was time, so I've done another run of the original copied tabs that brought the Tholey's into the tow tab game!

I really enjoy doing these. They are somewhat complicated (as far as the NMW tabs go) and making great quality reproductions of the original NMW tabs - which I also think have a great looking design- is a very gratifying process. Admittedly, the process has evolved over the years. The earliest versions were 100% true to the original process, basic tools, a break, and the arc welder.

As some will surely notice, these examples are mig welded. The steel was laser cut form USA steel. The bends were all made with computer controlled precision. After all of that, they still fit perfectly in my old jig- though some of the smaller items I did need to sand just a bit. The end result is an extremely similar product as the originals, with higher quality construction and assembly. These are excellent reproduction tabs, anybody could be proud to hang on the front of their day 2 Nova.

Price is $200 per pair, with $14 USPS flat rate shipping being my preferred method to get these delivered. For the best communication, please email me at [email protected]

Nice Work Paul, that is a good deal, any one who has ever tried to bend big metal know how much work this is. I personally own a bunch of NMW tabs and Pauls are excellent quality.

Great job Paul...your work is second to none.

Thanks for the compliments. Early on I had some great help from my old neighbor, Bryan. From there things have evolved to the current way I build them. I'm rather particular on how certain aspects of these tabs present and I'm thrilled whenever someone offers positive feedback or a compliment.

There are 4 pair of these Nova tabs left- in case anyone is on the fence or is concerned with timing if their needs.

Wrapping up some camaro and chevelle tabs tomorrow, and even taking the pins I sourced to a close copy of what is right. Stay tuned!

I have a set of the tow tabs from Paul, on my 69 Nova. They look and fit great. I've had more people asking about those tow tabs than I can remember. There's a bunch of guys who have no idea what they are. I painted mine yellow to match the gold Nova color better.
