ideas on a 1970 gas tank relocation.

I am new to this truck restoration thing, cut my teeth on some outer floor sections, cab corners, rocker panels and other misc. Cutting and welding. Body is coming together and a friend encouraged me to weld up my gas filler hole, so I wouldn't chicken. out on moving my tank out of the cab. I reluctantly took his advice. So now I need thoughts ideas and pictures of my options for my tank relocation. You can't be to specific with your post.

Thanks. I'm counting on you guys to get me through this before I give up!

Blazer tanks are the usual route to a rear mount tank.
I just parted an 89 Suburban and thought about checking to see if the tank would fit, but got tired of having it in the driveway and sold it before doing so.
