32 Ford 5 window

I brought this to top to show method of mounting fuel tanks in one of these cars------tanks are about as well protected as I could make them and exhaust heat wasn't a problem because car had side pipe/headers on it-




some pics of a 32 ford build I did a few years ago
The first pic shows a view where you can see the Heiht's 9 in Ford IRS with quad shocks, the Mustang Hydroboost brake master AND the twin 8 gallon stainless fuel tanks--the tanks inlets are the 2 tubes at the right rear corner of the right side tank and the left tank is fed from the inboard tube internally across the back to the tube sticking out of the left tank, just above the pinion area. the tanks balanced by the outlet lines at the lower front of the tanks(not installed yet) and there is a aprox one gallon common header /fill tank mounted in the upper forward trunk area with a Cobra /LeMans flip top type fill cap.
The second pic you can see the notch at the bottom of the tank where I put the fabricated screened outlet fitting.
Fourth pic shows bottom of tank area and crossmember with the two forward mounting for the lower links
Fifth pic shows rear view of the rear

some more (remember that I'm practicing loading pics and attachments
First pic is a duplicate from above(remember I said I was practicing uploading pics/attachments)
Second pic forward view from rear and you can see how crossmember at front of tanks also has a peak for the floor tunnel
Third is another repeat(sorry)
Four---540 inches of Dart block/heads, Hilborn injected , Vintage Air Front Runner accessory drive
Five--right side--fuel pump, filter, the two fill tubes for the tanks

All I can say Jerry is, KEEP PRACTICIN'! LOL... Lovin' it over here!

Disclaimer----I didn't build the 4l80 transmission----

I was just thinking Tudors are 5 windows just a little longer LOL / Jerry that is some nice work you did there .

Brought this to the top as there was a recent thread with some underneath tanks along this way-----

Brought this to the top as I didn't want to hijack Rogers thread while conversation about fuel tanks going on. I worked long and hard with the customer on this as he didn't want the tank in the rear r in the trunk area. Took a bunch of time and several cups of coffee!

Well protected stainless steel! Nice work Jerry!
