1967 Cuda FB project


I ordered some of that !!!

Also spent some time working on the gas tank. Made some swinging flaps for the sump section. Bought some cheap small hinges and pop riveted them on. One on each side of the box. Hopefully it will work for keeping the fuel pump submersed in fuel during "spirited driving" mode. lol

I cut a hole in the center of the top above the sump area. It's 16 gauge sheet metal so I made another piece for thicker area where it's going to screw together. Then welded it on the bottom side of the top.

Then I took some 3/8" aluminum and made a top plate for the fuel pump assy. Drilled and tapped the top of the tank for 10/24 SS screws and test fit. I will tig nuts on the bottom side of the top just for added thread area.

Next is to weld in a filler tube to line up with the stock fill tube.
