The parts are on order from the machine shop. They quoted 4 weeks. I also ordered 10 filler necks.

I like the new look also! I will take one when they are done please.

That's great. Thank you.

I'll probably fabricate my own setup similar to what you are having made as I have the tools and ability. Instead of a power plug I am planning to install a plug for my battery tender behind the gas cap. I found this on amazon.

Cool idea. That's probably more useful for most people than a power plug.

I’m in for the original. Great work! Way better than the shop tried on ours.

pjmoreland, the smaller spacer design is the one I like best for my 72. Will these come with a new grommet and fill cap. I hope you ordered enough material to fill the requests. Oh, by the way, thanks for putting this together and taking the time to share it.

I'm just going to build 10 on the 1st run. I will build more if all goes well. I won't be including a cap so you 71-72 guys guys will have to get a cap.

I used to have a parasitic drain on my battery too. First, I found the heat signature with a thermal imaging usb camera on my phone. It turned out to be the old GPS tracker I forgot that I put in the truck years ago. Then, I added a PriorityStart Battery protector. https://www.batterymart.com/p-priori...lt-promax.html

Installed 3 years now with the truck sitting for months at a time, and I never touch the trickle charger. Starts every time.
It'll also keep me from over draining the battery with the power plug being used. I highly recommend.

I just got a notification that the machine shop shipped the laser-cut parts. I received the grommets from GMCPauls last week, and I'm expecting the 60-66 filler necks from classicparts.com in a few days.

More than 10 people have expressed interest, but I'll put everyone on the list anyways. I will make more if the first 10 sell quickly.
