    Don - Thanks, did you notice I didn't put any resin on my Styrofoam? Sorry couldn't pass it up!
    Happy Birthday,
    Ken

    Bob - It's like what you guys were saying earlier having the right tools makes all the difference. Thanks
    Ken

    Mopar34 - Thanks, I will pass that compliment on to my builder.

    I thought I would follow up on this. This is what the tank looks like in place, I'm going to secure it with factory style straps. The side of the rolled pan will be cut off then there will be a section welded to the body with a overlap that will screw to the pan, you won't see any of the tank unless you look underneath. Next I will do the fill neck behind the Frenched license plate.

    Looks great Ken. What is the story on the rear suspension? I like the way it looks too.

    Thanks Don, the rear is a independent Quick Change, I started with from Winters.
