Wow that's a stunning bit of kit....

What's the capacity? Similar to the stock? Will it be bolted in?

Posted: **Wed Jul 20, 16 6:17 pm**

Yes stock capacity. It will bolt in around the edge with some thin rubber strip as a gasket.

Very nice Blue, plenty of thought in the tank design....

Did Gary fab it ?

Gary was busy so I had Alloy Racing Fabrications make it. Good price, easy to deal with and done on time, they are more than happy to do one offs.

A thing of beauty!

It is nicely made. The bling brigade will be throwing there hands up in horror, it will be painted in black stone chip, I don't want to see it.

Wow, that looks really nice. What are the benefits to just surface mounting a fuel cell, other than it looking much cooler...

You get the weight down low, further back; and you still have Trunk space.

I did it on the '67 Dart and I am sure Kev did it in the Taxi....

So it is like the best of all worlds kind of option, nice.

I was originally planning to sink a fuel cell into the floor, but the sizes that are available just didn't work for me at all. Designing my own tank meant I didn't have to compromise, apart from having fuel lines in the boot which I don't like, but my fuel pump choice dictated that.

I want one now....

I have the drawings, could easily be sorted.....

nice tank ,I take it its baffled inside ,a lot better than the warped plastic fuel cells ,should make a really nice fuel system ,,top work as ever

Yes it has baffles. Spent a couple of hours bolting it in and working out how best to route the lines, mount the filter etc.
