Nolan, I may have missed it but is that the Mosley in tank set up for the fuel pump? If not who makes it?

Thanks,
Rob

This setup is made by Red Line. The truck arrived with this kit.

The main drawback to this setup is that I now I have to get a competent tig welder or braiser to seal it all up. Mosleys just requires tack welding. That said, this is super tight and if you saw yourself in super harsh conditions often the Redline kit would be the most rigid.

I have to take notes, being single and my projects is enough...I can't imagine mixing in a wife, kids and honey-do list. Truck is coming along nicely

You probably spent the same amount of time chasing it as I do not having to.......

Nice work!

If not new or replaced already, looks like the doors could use a set of these "vapor barrier"...

I sealed it all up with gaffer’s tape......cool that’s still available.

Last night I realized I was almost at the point of putting the seats back in. The big dead spot under the drivers seat screamed at me.

John got busy collecting the correct parts.

City Racer has repro tool bags and rubber bands with clips to hold them but the hardware to hold the band gone.

Quick text to Classic Cruisers and the proper parts are inbound with the air hose clamp we’ve been missing.

Made the trek up to Shaw Fab to get the master welder to zip this plate up.

Justin welds for the Air Force daily and truly is a master.

He looked it over and decided to MiG weld it. No Xrays needed.

Gas goes in tomorrow......

Careful, you're about to have to change the name to "PERFECT" build thread instead of "Almost perfect" !!!

I think it’s perfect. Just a bit roughed up in places but all the right goods.
