Your two year "resto"was well worth it. Your slant nose shines great.

Great Job....Congrats ! If I remember, you did a rear gas tank conversion with a 69 Camaro tank correct ? Can You post a pic from the rear & side so I can see how the tank fits on the finished truck ? Thank in advance & enjoy your truck !!

68'CTown · 07-04-2016, 09:18 PM

Thanks Craig....I saw your pics of the install of the tank in your original post....I just wondered how low the tank sets in your finished truck. I know others on the board have done the swap with a 3"-4" spacer between the frame & tank, and your install looks cleaner with the tank up against the frame & also seems to have more ground clearance. Do you have any issue filling the tank with the licence plate location fill with your install ? Any new pics would be helpful to me and others doing this swap...Again...great job on your truck !
