    I know the straps are being made for the gas tanks that fit the 76'-77' Mavericks. When I bought the new gas tank for the red and white 77' Maverick I bought a set of straps too. They were a perfect fit.

    Someone should complile a list of these parts, one column for "parts wanted", one for in "parts in progress" and one for "finished pieces". A rookie like me has no idea what's out there and where to look (yet!)

    The making of a list for each persons needs is what we are looking for.:thumbs2:

    It hepls us figure out how many of a certain part we need to produce,, and or what part is the most popular and has allot of people needing it. So if each person compiles his or her list of the parts they need,, having the most important parts at the top of there list going down to the least important,, That helps us to come up with our game plan on parts production,, We produce parts in the order, the majority of you have requested,,, and we will produce a few more then that request to help any New Comers to the Comunity,,,
    The Good thing is,,,we can move allot faster to the next requested set of parts. When the desired amount is done in a certain part,,, we can then retool for the next part. This will keep New parts coming out,, and we will be getting further down those Lists of needed parts,,
    If we Run out of stock on anything it also helps us decide on what part to restock on,, between retoolings,,
    So soon the parts we all have waited so long for,,,, are soon becoming a reality,, It is a combined effort of all of us together,,:Handshake Thank You All for helping in this venture,,, Lets knock this puppy out of the Park,, and Make it easier to build our cars,,,:dancing:

    Which style boomerangs are being made right now? Are they the type with the rounded corner for the Mavericks without the stainless trim under the quarter windows, or the type with the squared off corners for the cars with the trim piece? Both?

    Will the boomerangs with the squared off coners be made too? Both of my Mavericks use those kind of boomerangs.
