    Finally got my fuel tank moved the the rear of my 52. I’ll have to raise the bed but that’s ok. I had help from a local Hotrod shop. They did the heavy lifting annd I did the fuel lines. Also nice to not have fumes coming into the cab.

    I didn't want my filler in the bed so I worked out a way to fill from the side. It fills a bit slow but I'm happy with it.

    love the look. you could have done a 90 up the stake pocket and speed up the fill time a bit

    I loved the fill on the 48 and early 49's with the saddle tank vs the in-cab tanks on the AD's
