I put a jeep tank in the rear, and instead of having a hole in the floor, I desiced i would put it in the steak pocket. ran a fuel fill hose all the way to the tank. the filler itself is a marine piece i picked up at the local marina. 12 bucks I think, and just painted to my body color.

check out my build thread, it has more on the tank and will have more on the gauges and filler

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

Here's a plate i made to change the front bolt pattern on my truck to 4 3/4 . It has centering bushings for drilling and taping holes works great...

Cool Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

I've done a few more mods of late on the 71.

All new SpeedHut gauges installed.



Air bag helper in the back springs.


New 20" wheels all around.


Bought the caliper paint at O-Rileys today and going to paint the fronts RED!

Here's a few of mine:

Pic #1 is my design door panel and homemade power window switch bezel

Pic#2 is my homemade polished stainless wheeltubs. That is a weld that was ground and polished on the 90 degree return

Pic #3 is my firewall wiring cover made out of a chunk of billet

Does this count. I matched the cooler to my truck!
Got the cooler all done. It turned out great I think!
