Re: 1953 Burb build
Got all my sand blasting done,
Frame is done ready to put motor and trans in as soon as I get the power steering hoses figured out. GM type 2 box to a MustangII rack is not easy. A few fittings from speedway and I should be good to go. Brake lines and Fuel ready

Re: 1953 Burb build
That looks awesome. What are you running for a fuel tank. I like that you didn't have to remove the rear cross member. Is it going to be top fill?

Re: 1953 Burb build
I will get a few pics of the tank
http://www.brotherstrucks.com/prodin...number=SGT4753 It bolts in using tabs that come with the tank. It is a little higher in price compared to what I paid at the time ( $285) it is the same one I run in my truck. I don't know that you can get a in tank pump inside of it. It is plumbed for a inline pump. I like that for a few reasons: 1. I have a pump on the shelf 2. The MSD pump I am using is quiet 3. If it ever take a dump it is two wires and two fittings.... 30 minute change on the side of the road Pics to follow |

Re: 1953 Burb build
The tank install looks great. I am glad to see that you used the steel tank because that is the one I think I am going to get. I might have to cap off those fittings for the fuel because I think I am going to run an Aeromotive Phantom in tank pump set up.
