Muffler shop got backed up so it goes in for the exhaust next week. Then it will be time for the wood floor and some much needed cleaning. Then I'll post some more pics!!! I'm too embarrased to show off all the dust or I'd take more now!!

1971ChevyTruck · 04-21-2009, 08:56 PM

Its a plastic fuel cell with a sending unit, the fuel filler neck will mount in the wood floor(when I install the wood). I am using a marine flip up style that has 2" hose going into the top of the fuel cell. I think totally I have $135 in it. I will get more pics in a couple of days.
