Edie: The Dart
Decided to pop in for an update, here's whats been going on:
Trunk floor mocked up, bent up:
Trunk drop off's laid out, this took a while to get right. Matching to new quarters makes it a little tougher to get your bearings:
Here is something different I decided to do, and it should work out well.
*Gives me 22 gallons of fuel.
*Shares the same ohm range as the stock sender.
*It cost me $125 for the tank and sender, shipped.
Did you solve what is it yet? It's the 1970 mustang fuel tank!!
I'll install it tight to the floor pan, with sound deadener on top of it.
The filler neck is offset 3/4" towards the passenger side, made the frame out of 5/8" square tube:
Minus a quick 1/4" trim on the drivers flange, it does fit between the frame rails like it was made for it, and it clears my exhaust with ease.
It would clear a leaf spring relocation, using rear sliders, as well.
I could leave it as a trunk fill deal, but I'm going the distance here:
Next is to mock/bend up the filler neck hole/mount in the tail panel, and make the cut I need in the floor pan. I've always liked the rear fill. Should be rad when it's all done. :D
After that, I've got something in mind to delete those horrible 5mph bumper shocks, and give myself something to hang a receiver hitch off of...
Enjoy!
