Cargo Tie-down straps?
Does anyone know where I can buy original or NOS cargo tie-down straps for my '79. I'm talking about the 3-strapped nylon looking web thing that apparently came with the car when new. I've got those three metal loop attachments in my cargo area, and they look stupid sitting there with nothing to do. I've checked Mid-America, the Paddock, Corvette Central, and no one seems to stock them. Any ideas????? :confused:

try http://www.gruhala.com Ihave gotten some nice parts from him and reasonable. I know he is parting out some now. I checked Riks's and Dr. Rebuild cats, no luck. There's always Carlisle later this year if Gary can't help you...good luck

The straps in question are for securing the t-tops and are not for cargo. You are looking for a t-top Y strap in the color of your interior. Check the aftermarket providers.

Hi Scott,
If you still need a t-top tie down strap, contact Gary at http://www.gruhala.com. Good guy, good price, has more straps left.
