Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Picked up an 18 gallon 69 nova tank to go under the bed. Got it with a sending unit and a locking cap for really cheap. Looks dirty, but the inside is like brand new. The top of the tank will mount between the frame rails with a couple of inches hanging under the frame but that will be covered by the bumper and the tank will be black so it should be unnoticeable. It will fill through the bumper and be covered by the license plate on a hinge.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Since Its starting to get pretty cold outside, the bodywork will slow down but I have been researching about swapping to a t5 and I'm going to look at one for sale sometime soon. Updates will follow if I purchase it.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Very cool build. Be sure to thank your dad for letting you work on stuff with him. I never worked on anything with my dad but I'm definitely including my boys on my burb build.
Keep up the good work. I'll be back for sure.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
I can see the light!
This is a household light socket that the po put in. I put a 12 volt bulb in it and it works!

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
That's so cool. Years ago I used to use a five watt bulb in household socket hooked to my CB radio. It would light up when you talk or modulate. Really neat way of testing the radio.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
First day of Christmas break, so I got busy. Built a 1bbl to 2bbl adaptor plate out of aluminum. Ported and polished the inside so it should flow pretty good. Then I got started on the linkage, the pic below is the pedal assembly after I flipped the arm so when I give it gas it pulls instead of pushing. Then I built a rod with bends that goes from the pedal arm to the carb. Here's a video: http://youtu.be/PU0i3WgsB0Y

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Made a cross member to put between the frame rails for the gas tank straps to bolt to. I will weld it in place later today.

Nice work on the bumper brackets. Did you really make the slots with a file?

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Thanks guys. Yes I made them with a drill press, a hacksaw but mostly files. Took a while. Times like these when a cnc plasma cutter would come in handy
