Thanks for the feedback, Royce.

I can't find the stamp. It looks like the lid for the gas tank has been replaced at some point and not a very good job either. It appears to be vegetable crate material from the farmer's market.

The tank itself may be riding a little high in the compartment as a hole was cut out (apparently with a chopping tool) to accommodate the gas cap. Or is that the way it's suppose to be? I ask because the lid is on hinges. Why would the lid be on hinges unless you had to open it to get to the gas cap?

Can you (or anyone) post a photo sometime of what that's supposed to look like?
