Did you get a repro made for the eyebolts? Because those are AGA/SSC...never saw one on a GE.

They appear to me to be 98% the same eyebolt IMO. The shape of the wing nut is a tad different shape on the wing part. It could be they had more that one supplier so there may have been slight differences from lot to lot. This would not be noticeable and hey....this stuff was not made to be collectable to begin with. :thumbsup:

Get up there and lets take a look at what your bolts look like. I don't know how to do the picture side by side deal so it will be easy to see the difference. If you can post that picture we will be in business. I would very much like to see. :grin:

Looking at the picture of your's and Old Timer's his seems to be a square block with a threaded rod on the end of it. I've seen that style on GE's. Yours seems to be more like a barrel, with tapered ends, and a threaded rod on the end of the barrel. That's the first time I saw one on a GE.
