Gary,
Congrats on posting the pix. The '51 didn't look too bad in'78 (minus the side pipes!). Well, looks like you're under way and have a good start with the 302/C4 + Volare. Better suck up to the brother-in-law though, huh? LOL...
Keep us posted on developments as they come about, and as always, if we can help, fire away!

Daryl

The Isuzu tank is a really easy install. I just had to grind out the frame-rails a bit for it to fit. Where I placed it the frame-rail kicks-up toward the front so I cut an angled spacer to fill the gap. The drawback on this tank is that it is only 15 gallons but I think there are bigger ones on some Troopers.
