Re: fuel filler eliminator, any tips?

One of my younger brothers put a 22 gallon fuel cell between the rear tires, tucked up under the bed. It was all the bigger he could go, since the 18" wide tires needed to keep traction behind the blown 383 stroker took up a lot of room. And a good place for weight when racing. He had excellent fabrication skills, and worked out a fill pipe that was accessed by opening up the left tail light, like on a '56 Chevy. The cab hole was welded up and ground smooth before painting.
