Made notches, and upper bag cups for the back. Pulled the bed. Some genius in the 70s decided it would be cool to attach the gas tank to the bed floor.

Thats actually how it is from the factory. Lol. I was implying whoever designed the truck is a genius.

Special price is $3.99 for the Camels. That sign is about a year old though.

Traditional bd to the rockers! Hope whoever drives it is skinny lol. Looks alot like mine when I 1st got it. That gas tank mounting was a pita to get off too. You're gonna use a different gas tank right? Cause I guarantee there is crap in it & its nearly impossible to get it clean enough to not clog fuel filters every few days or weeks. lol Anyways good luck with the build.
