Is there a supplier in your area that sells new tanks, In my town the local radiator shop sells tanks and can get straps as well.

You could probably make your own with a bench vise, some flat steel and a hammer. Have you looked at local junk yards? There is a few first gens at my local one.

We always just welded up the old ones on the Dodge, they always broke. My Dad always had Dodges and the tank straps always broke and we would just weld the old ones back together.
