Chains on Tow Truck Sling - last question

[Andrew D the Jolly Roger]

Trying to figure out from this image, is this A) one continuous chain that wraps around the end of the sling bottom, or is it B) two separate pieces of chain, separately connected in the same general area?

One chain on each side back then. The “J” hook hooked to the vehicle being towed (swinging in the wind in this photo), then wrapped around the tow bar at the bottom as shown, then hooked at the top of the sling just outside of view in the photo. The excess chain that was left could either be hooked to the chain from the other side or back on itself.

You didn't ask but I found suitable chain at HB in the jewelry chain area,

Nice!

Here's what I use, much more worn to look the part....

...and yes, the sling and the entire tow rig is completely scratchbuilt (took about a year...)
