Oldskool 6,658 #127 Posted September 30, 2020 I think this is the last piece before the grille and hood become a one piece flip hood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tractorhead 9,065 #129 Posted September 30, 2020 That shape is definitively „Old School „ fit‘s 100% your nick👍 Fantastic job. i imagine nearly exact same shape, as you cut finally out of the metal, what give me the trigger to move the hood gently more to the right. Do you have an spot welder? looks great at all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did it by plug welding. I will use the same process when I join the hood and grill 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oldskool 6,658 #146 Posted October 2, 2020 Anybody have any thoughts to where a guy could get a fuel tank that would be 6"dia, about 11" long with a center fill and a center petcock?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have some different tanks out there from different stuff. Think there might be something like that but not sure on the center petcock. It'll be rusty inside but fill with sheetrock screws, give it some good shaking to scrape off the big stuff then soak it with cider vinegar. That cleans tanks pretty good. Search around for a Wisconsin engine fuel tank. Some don't have the petcock in the center, some do. But that can be moved if necessary. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Wisconsin-AKN-Engine-Fuel-Gas-Tank-approx-10-long-x-5-3-4-OD/363061521725?hash=item5488272d3d:g:RhIAAOSwGzdfIZ7Z Edited October 2, 2020 by wallfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think I've anything here like that but I'll take a peek. That small one I offered is still available but your range would be pretty short. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
