Title: Gas tank strap
Post by: Ford Blue blood on 2011-04-06 09:54
Looking for one.....?  Car has one in it and no sign of the second.  Both the strap and the hanger are gone with no sign of tramatic removal.  For a 63A, expect they are the same for all non Retractables and Rancheros?

Thanks, Bill

Bill do you still need one? Sorry about the delay but I have two that I think will clean up. Let me know if you want them.

Glen I do, need just one.  Let me know how, what and when. 

I am not in a rush, still have many irons in the air with this car, sell it as is, partial fix and sell (needs the inner fender well patched in and I have them) or keep it and build the car into a  Kool Kruiser!?!

Still need to drop the tank and get it dipped and sealed so we are a day or two away from needing it.

Thanks, Bill

Speaking of gas tank straps, my 2000 f150 ,I just stopped and put $72.00 of gas in it and was driving home and both straps broke( rusted in half) and tank fell onto the road and split the front seam. Lucky it didn't end in a big ball of fire!!! If you have a f150 take time to check it out. Tom
