I have been working on a few small items. One was mocking up the gas filler. I have had this idea for about a year now. One challenge was the angle of the gas filler on the tank. It was slopped back too much. I cut some relief cuts in order to level out the filler then I welded it back closed.

I then located the correct location in the wood floor so I could cut in a hole. I also had to notch the rear flange slightly. I will be replacing the wood, so I want to figure out all my holes and cuts with this rotted wood so I can swap them over to the new wood. I will dress up the tank welds once I pull the tank.

All that is left it to weld a piece of 2" pipe on the bottom of the filler housing so it will match the diameter of the tank filler. I will then join the two with a couple of hose clamps and some 2" rubber hose (rated for gas).
