    A few years back there was a blac 34' 3-window that was featured in Street Rodder and other magazines. This car had what appeared to be a moon tank on the front but it was actually a tool box/storage compartment. It opened like a clam shell. Doeas anyone know where to get that tank or anything like it? If I remember correctly there was a V-8 logo engraved on both ends. Thanks!

    Suppose you could make one yourself, but I'd suggest using a non-MOON® tank, the real ones (original, anyway) are getting quite expensive.

    The co. was Magcaps. I got adapters and caps for some flat steel wheels so if a search doesn't turn them up, I'll look for the invoice.
     
  4. LOL, I was in the store just the other day looking at one of those mini kegs thinking about the same car. Now I just have to figure out what to do with the beer inside, seriously.

    I can't find any info on Madcaps online. If you can find and invoice or phone number I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
