gas tank relocation

Has anyone relocated the gas tank on a 1926 ford model t. I really don't like the gas tank sitting in front of me.
Thanks

Re: gas tank relocation

If you think about it, it really is the safest place for the tank to be in the event of an accident. If it were out back, a rear-ender would crush it. It's above any side impact with a modern car. And a front end impact would have to be quite violent to impact the tank where it sits.

The way you describe it makes sense. Ok I will leave it.
Thanks

I believe some Australian Ts had it at the back.
