From any viewing angle except sitting on the ground, the 2nd gen Camaro fuel tank isn't visible with the MarK pan

There isn't much of a flange to bolt the sides of the MarK pan to the bed (also MarK) so I used some tank clamps off a Model A Ford (28 or 29) to pinch them together. Youngrodder's solution of welding them together is probably best, but I wanted to be able to take them apart
I used those same bolt/lights on a Jeep and found them to be barely adequate too. I'm happy that the Mar-K roll pan isn't pre-drilled for lights. That will allow me to choose whatever method of lighting i wish. Thanks for the photos.
