Man, am I loving these cloudy mornings.
Gives you a chance to get stuff done.
Picking up my engine for the 74 today, so guess what I'll be doing all weekend.
Anybody know a fuel tank builder that's local?

Lol
Yeah not your everyday request I guess.
I took my tank out to observe the interior and thought maybe I'd try and get a little range while I was at it.
There's a company out in San Bernadino but they only work four days a week,,, and they're in San Bernadino.

BTW
I have about nine gallons of bad gas if anybody needs it
JK
Didn't want to run old fuel through my renewed new engine.
Been sitting for 4 or 5 months.
Might as well just light a few twenties and watch them burn.

Just add a couple of gallons at a time to a fresh tank, in any car you choose. You've got plenty to choose from.

"Splain, please.....
Is this pouring the liquid contents of a GlowStick into jelly jars?
The photo of the four jars was a bit confusing until I realized the jars had lids on them, and weren't jars that had been broken or cut.

Yes, exactly Pop. I used the larger glow tube pictured below.
Used jelly jars with lids tightened. I bent the tube first, then strained out the broken glass and poured the liquid into the jars.
I see the 4 jars were still glowing this am.
Also taking used paper towel roll centers, cutting out eye shapes, then inserting a glow tube inside. Then place discretely into outdoor shrubs to imitate peering eyes
