55-59 Rear Fuel Tank

[Dan in Pasadena]

Frank, How are you handling the conflict between that neck and the rear cross member? Or do they not conflict? In the photos it looks like you'll have to C the top of the cross member. If you have any photos of how you did it, can you please post them or at least describe how you did it?

Also, you mounted the tank to the bottom flange of the frame rails, not the top flange. Did you do that to make it easier to remove later if needed? Also, why the triangulated 1" tubing? What was the need for that? Sorry to ask so many questions.
