1970 Mustang fuel tank

I took off the temporary fuel tank as I was tired of looking at it. I also couldn't afford the custom tanks at almost $500.00, with shipping. I saw this option on this site and decided to go ahead with the change-over. The tank cost $150.00 with shipping and was off of Ebay. I went with the Canadian manufactured tank for a few dollars more because it appeared to be of far better quality. It is a tank for a 1970 Mustang/Cougar.

I had to fabricate the rings and cut an opening for the fuel injection. I did bolt on the rings instead of welding. I also had to trim back the frame rails for about 10 inches to make room for the tank and also move the cross-members.

Since I had to move the crossmember that the shocks use to mount on, I went ahead and moved the shock mounts as well and re-attached the shocks back to the original shock mounts.
