Well, the 68 2000 I'm putting back together, had such nice carbs (they were
completely overhauled by Z-Therapy), I decided to take out the gas tank to
have it treated, cleaned out the lines, and put all new connections from the
tank, sticking out of the car. When I pulled out the sending unit, I was
completely shocked at how much crap was sitting on the bottom of the tank.
Not to mention, the sending unit looked like something that was recovered
from the Titanic. I'll probably replace it also. My question is this. Based
on the way the Roadsters fuel filler neck is designed (Sticking out of the
back of the car), has anyone decided to retrofit their tank so that you have
to open the trunk in order to fill it? This would keep 99% of the weather
issues out of the tank over time. Is there any greater danger of fumes etc.
doing this?
