Mike...I agree. I can get the leather strips for about $7-$8. But I was hoping to NOT have to make them. I have plenty of work to do now. In fact more than I can handle. I was hoping to find the belts already done for around $20-$23. Basically, I wanted to know who already makes them...

Actually Bill, a few do! Big and tall stores. Cept they want $80 a belt.I checked there too!

Thanks Duke. Hmmm the price I found was 32.50 a belt. Maybe the extra 2.50 was a Wisconsin tax!

Hi Vulture: I would love to find a leather shop in northern IL that has straps at a good price. I am in Clinton WI. I have attached a picture of the tan strap, but will also need this in black.

Hi Todd. Here is his exact quote in bold: Remember, these are complete belts with buckles, holes etc, not just the blank straps. For the 72" × 1" finished belts... Natural veg tan we would be at $35 each and if you decided you want them stained a certain color we can do $40 each.

Thank you Todd. I use Springfield Leather for all the other leather on the trunks. They are great people. Unfortunately, their quote for the straps for the trunks are higher than everyone else's retail price. Not sure why that is because all the other leather I get from them beets the crap out...

Thank you all for your input but I have googled antique trunk hardware and talked with all of them. Most all of them sell 60" straps. These trunks require 72" straps. Someone makes them because places like Lebarron/Snyders sell them. So where do they get them from? Yes, I can make them but by...

I am starting to build the trunks for the Model A's and soon hope to be expanding this to other cars as well. I am having some difficulties finding the 1" x 72" long belts/straps that go around the trunk. Does anyone know who makes these belts? I see Lebarron Bonney has them but don't want...

Thank you for the information. With that belt, there won't be any bottoming out on the alt. pulley ?????????

With the NuRex alternator, I sometimes get whistling sounds. After checking the pulley I think the belt maybe riding on the bottom of the pulley ( stock model A belt ) . I'm told that it should rest on the V not the bottom. Does anyone know what size belt should be used? Where do you get it...

I run a 6 V alt. on my car. Everything has worked fine until recently when my alt. started putting out OVER 20 amps (as witnessed from my amp meter). I have a 20 amp circuit breaker that I use coming off the starter instead of a fuse some folks usually use. At above idle RPM's, the circuit...

I have a '30 Standard Tudor. I am looking to put turn signals on it. I have LED tail lights ( 2 ) and an LED light strip in the rear window. What I am looking for is: A signal set that can be hidden. I'd like to use the toggle switch hidden under the dash. The parking lights in the headlights...
