Fuel tanks finished with the help of my little helper Andrew. He's learning well!

fittings all done and a quick pressure and the old soapy water test diligently performed again by the budding apprentice (non paid of course) Andrew.
Just a quick grind and then paint.

A bloke told me once that you there's a similar cap you can buy from a plumbing store. I've never looked into it myself so can't say for sure.
Awesome work Colin. A lot of people go to the expense of making these tanks out of Stainless steel, what are your thoughts? The fuel tanks I have seen have swaging in them. Is this difficult to replicate?

Today myself and three mates put down a slab 7.2m x 3m for my humpy for VR 2225 at my work , two cases of XXXX Beer and she is done . In a couple of years time when we move into our new house my wife will let me have the big shed for my toys but for the time this will have to do . When wife gives you a yes to buy a bren gun carrier you must take the plunge and buy one otherwise the YES can soon turn into a big NO ... Dale
