Sure, that's an option, thank you. And all-thread might be a good way to get the straps stretched out to avoid the hassle described by others in this thread.
I have new hex bolts and nuts coming from Ames, but I was just wondering if a flange-head bolt was actually "correct" and if so, where to get them. So far, it doesn't matter as I haven't found a source for flange-head dog point bolts.
There are lots of sources for hex-head dog point bolts - AMK is one source. Lots of places to buy "gas tank strap hardware" but they all currently sell hex-heads as "correct".
