My buddy Danny who is painting my duster got the fuel cell/floor finished up in the car. He fab'd up a real nice replacement trunk floor. Basically the "spare tire well" now is square for the aluminum fuel cell. He made an aluminum collar to go around the cell, with two nice straps to hold the cell in place. It has some weld nuts welded in the floor, with stainless button head screws to finish it off... Came out real nice. One more piece of the puzzle finished up!

Filler neck direct to the 1/4 panel for easy fuel ups!

I like this. I wish I would have done something similar in my car. Sure would be easier at the pump!
