I posted privately to Larry about the gas tanks....should have posted to the
list.

A mid 60' Mustang tank will fit perfectly between the frame rails.. You do
need to move the rear crossmember back a few inches and the tank is a top
fill....The tank is mounted in a 1" square tubing frame that is bolted
directly to the frame rails... I have seen a rear fill setup with a cute
little filler door fabbed into the rear bed cross sill... It was at P.F.
three years ago...reallly neat.

I'm using a "cool cap" look alike to fill thru the bed. It's actually a
marine tank fill unit that is 1/2 the price of the "cool cap" and exactly
like it withouth the logo.... questions ??? email off line to
jniolon wans.net or jniolon uss.com

The filler neck comes out between the frame rail and the bed, there is ample
space between there. You can either put a filler door in the back of the rear
fender to accommodate the filler neck, or just put a round hole with a
grommet, and cap.

Subject: Cow Hide

I have a '56 Farm Truck (Long Box). I want to redo the bench seat. I have
access to cowhide (Holstein(black&white) for great price. Will have to get
it tanned. Anyone know where I can send a hide to get processed? Is it
worth it? I've tried taxidermists. They say cowhide is too much of a pain.
Should I use faux cowhide? Thanks

Peter

As it stops, and won't go any further because of the oil pump not aliening.
Have someone turn the engine over either by bumping the starter, or by using
a socket on the harmonic balancer bolt as you gently push the distributor
> down, it will fall right in.
