spare tire leather straps
hi, i was looking at the treffen photos and some of the 911s have a "y" shapped leather strap holding the spare tire. does anyone know where i can get these with the hardware and if they are original to longhoods?
thanks, matt

First of all, that doesn't appear to be an original long hood car. 2nd, the gas tank is not correct for a long hood, so neither is the collapsible spare. But, leather straps are available for luggage and a few other uses. I found the source on the Early S Registry, but I lost most of my bookmarks changing computers.

Milt,
You are correct about that not being an original long hood.. Brake booster & frame rails on tub! It sure is purdy though! P-
