Default Re: Fuel Tank conversion to Pick up bed

What tank are you using? I just bought an aluminum 17 gal. 'fuel cell' for my 47 frankentruck. Not sure what makes it a fuel cell instead of a tank, but it was like 214.00 with a sender and thick black exterior coating. That whole area between the frame rails on our trucks makes it pretty easy to do this conversion. I would like to see some photos of your tank and it's brackets and plumbing.
