Those piano hinge fuel door are just plain butt ugly, they rust and the paint peels off the hinges.

One more thing the tanks rust on the inside too.

Well if that's all the problem is, it won't be a problem for me. I'm going to just weld the fill necks shut and not use them. I would like them to have a round hole in top with the 5 bolt holes surrounding it for one of those universal 90 ohm sending units. And another similar hole to mount a round disk fitted with a pickup tube with filter sock and vent tube. If I get used or steel ones that may rust I can clean them up and put some of that RED-KOTE or something like that in there.
