    I then wanted to tackle the feet for the tank. I found a few photos online of other folks who converted these and most went for pretty stock looking ones, I tried to copy another Hambr I saw who did changed the feet some and im pretty happy with the results, it kinda came out steam punk. But they work and are sturdy.

    I was sitting closer to 75 honestly, but yes i kept it low, these tanks were much thinner than I originally thought.

    For the top straps I kept my manual brake rods from the A brakes and they worked great. I just tapped the ends and bent them to a half circle. Like i said this came out a little steam punk but I'm happy with it. I have not mounted it in the car yet, the body is still braced up from removing it, but i will hopefully this weekend.
