Tank is looking good Dave! Is the filler slightly to the right of center, or is it the way they have done the ribs in the top of the tank? I have the same issue with a rusted out upright but on the drivers side. Was thinking of cutting a section out of the back of the car for access to the upright....

Patches done, mostly. Bit more finishing required before filler (definitely required...). Filled in trim holes. Next is to fix this bit of the gutter above RH rear door. Then onto fitting a Mustang fuel tank thanks to Brett027.

Rear lamp fits pretty well now But have to deal with a few more rust repairs Dave

FB ute fixer upper, EK van on rotisserie Awesome, thanks Clay. Looks like my Rares qtr panel patch is about 10mm too hig...
