Semi tank for storage
OK guy's I was saving my absolutely ( as yet to be determined ) genius idea but since the tread is started I might as well get your thoughts . This is a saddle tank from a semi . My plan is to cut the left 2/3 's of the top and hinge it for storage leaving the filler cap area for the battery and tools etc. I will also use the nice brass filler for my gas by taking my new plastic left side under running board tank and moving it to the right running board leaving the fill neck to the inside at the back of the cab and connecting it to the brass filler . Since it is aluminium it should polish nicely

Yes its too wide and a little higher than I want . My plan is to narrow it to just under bed width ( I have friends that need bodywork and can aluminium weld ) and then play with the height bye cutting the bottom off and using wood on the bottom to leave it quieter and less slippery + leave me the option of being able to attach anchors to the wood floor . PS not as big as it looks it is only 4" too wide and only just above the top of the box
