I brought the rear bumper home and put it up in place and with the tank in the new location, it looks like it will be okay. Between moving it up and coating it black, it won't be nearly as obvious as it was before.
I switched gears and got on the mill/lathe and machined the split ring for the fuel filler assembly. The tank goes up from the bottom and the filler will have to be attached prior to that as there's no way to access the clamps in the space available. I'll have a 3.25"D hole in the floor that the filler goes up thru. Then with it in place, I'll slip the split ring around it and screw the filler assembly to it. Then, I'll bolt the 4.25"D ring to the floor which will unitize the whole shebang.

Trying to figure out your setup on the bridge port, carrasole...
Does the device have threaded holes for the clamps
Where did you buy it
Great work so far, keep on keeping on
