It is a Summit tank, it might be easier to install a Blazer tank, but with my truck being bagged the tank will hit the ground someday and I won't have to worry as much.

Engine should be painted this weekend, possibly the inside of the bed too. I will be ordering the wood bed rails in about 3 weeks or so and then the seats will be covered sometime in September. But do plans ever really work out????

Thanks. He has his moments. I am getting the bed ready and the block ready for paint so I can do them at the same time. The bed got some attention this weekend. I'll post some pics.

The bed needed some love so we started sanding and grinding and putting on some filler for the dings and light surface craters. The inner fenders are looking much better but still need a little more time spent on sanding and filling. Got it in primer so it wouldn't rust away overnight and hopefully I will be able to get on it again this coming weekend. The engine is still sitting and is going to scuffed up and sanded where needed for paint.
