Leather strap would work good I would think.

There was a guy who was selling polished aluminum pull straps that were about an inch wide. I got a pair many years ago. Don't know if they're still available or not.
I have those straps if you need them. I have a set of spare doors off a parts truck that has them
I think I am going to make some stainless door pulls for it

I used a hunk of old serpentine belt for a door pull strap for a long time on one of my trucks till I came across some nice used ones at a salvage yard..
Those plastic covers that go over the mounting screws for the straps that clip onto the door panels suck--they always either bust off the clips,or fly off when you slam the door..
I ended up using silicone RTV to glue them on..

I know of a way to easily fix the broken off plastic ends with a paper clip. Email me if you need to know [email protected]I used a hunk of old serpentine belt for a door pull strap for a long time on one of my trucks till I came across some nice used ones at a salvage yard..
