Petrol Tank Frame
Thanks all from preventing me from making a blunder on the tank supports! Like Alex, I didn't realize that there was a difference. I could see from the pictures of the Ford factory images that a plank was used but thought that it might be supported by a pair of steel rails. I believe that I can use the tank I have to determine the width of the top two planks as well as the bottom one. As for length, I'll have to guage that by the pictures. It appears that the top two planks rest on a wood support that keeps them off the top surface of the tanks. By the way, what kind of wood was used, oak, ash?
This brings me to another pair of needs. I still need a set of drawings/plans which contain the measurements of the tool box as well as the spare tire frame and securing hardware. Help on these two will be most appreciated!
Regards,
Jim
