I think the fact that this car spent its entire life in the desert has let this car age with zero rust(except inside the tank

I'm thinking there were different vendors for these straps and why some were painted black and some were natural. My straps have this "M" stamping on them near the front.
I had to replace my tank as well, it was rotting through the bottom from sitting for 32 years with a half tank of gas. The old gas literally turned into clumps of dirt and it smelled horrible. Here's what the original sending unit looked like.
