Gas filler ideas
I will be installing a rear frame gas tank. What have you guys come up with for filler options ? Anyone ever done a flip down license plate ?
Thanks

Re: Gas filler ideas
can you do a search? there's been some posts a while back on some good ones. behind the tail light, behind the side marker light, & under a cover in the rear stake pocket.

Re: Gas filler ideas
Teamharvey - the main problem with behind the plate is the angle of the dangle. I think the fill tube winds up being below the tank top. Through the bed floor is better. This is based on a blazer/burb style tank. Maybe a different tank(Camaro/Cutlass/etc.) would be laid out differently and would work fine.
Keep us posted on your actions - Bob

Re: Gas filler ideas
Not sure if you've seen this one teamharvey but I really like how it looks.I was going to go with behind the marker light,but after seeing this I'm reconsidering.
