Look correct. Square corners. One of my 66s has them but not as clean  ;D

Yes, very clean. If these had been used, I would expect some marks from the hooks. Maybe the reverse sides have some.

The hooks attached to the tie downs didn't always distort the metal of the tie down eyelet. It depended on things like how hard it was cinched down ,how rough the road was the truck traveled on ,how many times that they were reused etc.
