I don't get it! Dale is always so busy. Don't this tell someone something? There is obviously room in the market for another F/G maker!

Well still no doors :roll: . Have had to accept that It's not going to make it out again this year, best laid plans and all that. So decided to make a start on work I was planning to do next winter, new fuel system. Spare wheel well cut out, new tank designed and ordered. I'm going to use one of these new fangled Aeromotive EFI style in tank pumps, that's on back order till next month :cry: will strip to the old fuel line and scape off a bit more undercoating in the meantime.

Pump and tank gubbins turned up today, this glorified washer bottle pump runs at 45psi and will support 1000hp, it says so in the advert so it must be right...

My new tank arrived today, so a quick check to make sure it was as ordered, all fine.

I designed it to drop in the hole left where I cut out the spare wheel well and the top of it forms the new boot floor. It has same capacity as stock but moves the weight rearward as much as possible for better weight distribution.
