Project Riddler's Ride - 1976 Plymouth Duster
Well I've been getting the fuel tank ready more and more for a better fit. The floor needed two small patches made and welded in. I welded a small piece where the fuel gasket is and also a 1.5" strip down the back right up to the back panel. I've not got it seemed sealed and I'll POR15 it tomorrow.
I've decided I want to be able to take the tank out in the future so I chose to install threaded inserts to hold the tank down. 1/4" -20 aluminum inserts worked great. I've not got the stainless hardware to go with the tank as well.
The tank itself got a strip of self adhesive body tape all around it to prevent rattles and smoke coming into the trunk during burnouts. :)
I've been working on the transmission crossmember as well with my neighbor and should be done soon. Once thats done I can finish the floor and the inside POR15.
