I am using a Boyd's Tank but you could easily use a OEM Suburban/Blazer tank to save some money...

Thanks for the info. Money isn't the problem so much as the fab work.. but it does look fairly easy, sort of. Ill be moving on to the bed pretty soon, so we shall see.

are you making these from time to time still?

Re: Tail light fuel filler

Wynne, does the guy that was building them with you have any for sale? Or, will he still build any?

c10crewcab.com has them listed for sale. Not cheap, but that’s the only place I’ve seen making them

Re: Tail light fuel filler

Hugger did you ever get a printable template of your design?
I would love to be able to make one of these. Even just measurements for the pieces and where the bends are would be awesome.
