It just downed on me, that I should have taken pictures of the gas tank in the 85 Ford Ranger I bought last month.
Picture this, a 20 gallon boat tank, two chunks of 4x4, some plumers strapping, a topper, and a filler neck in the roof of the topper.
The 4x4s where bolted to the roof of the topper. The tank hanging from them by two strips of plumber strapping, with some wood screws. The filler neck was jammed through the topper, and sealed with expand a foam.
Needless to say I dropped the tank into the bed, and used the plumers strapping to secure it. On the search for a stock tank and sending unit. I'll get pics of current setup whenever I get home.

i have soot all over my cav's trunk........but that's what happens when you use it for a grill top with a coleman camper stove :homer:
sadly, my cav's exhaust is still way more "ghetto" than that. we'll just say my cat was replaced with a turbo muffler and the tailpipe may possibly be flex pipe held up by bailing wire and coat hangers.........with a badass black slash cut tip from the $1 parts store table. i am pure win.

Saw this one at work today.
I saw this one at work last week. Looks like someone took a Peterbilt and slapped it onto an RV. This might be something that someone manufactures, but there's also the possibility that it's a custom build. It's definitely different.
And, though I've never been a huge fan of modular motors, even though the power potential is great, I couldn't help but drool over this beauty in a 10.5 Outlaw Mustang (at least I think it was a 10.5 Outlaw car) owned by this guy out of New Jersey. Saw this one at work a couple of days ago.
