This may sound funny, but the best I can think of is hop on in. LOL. Or even ask a child to lay inside with a flashlight and their cell phone to take a picture when the lid is closed. This may answer many questions.

I have had my old girl over 60. " Just feel the tension man, what a ride ". Now I have them V8 wheels with a little wider tire on them, Have not to try them out yet. I'm still down for improvements. Will soon have my tank boiled and sealed, and both axles rebuilt. Front is done. Like ian Simpson...

WOW ! Looks great !! Now ya got me thinking.

thats a great Idea

I got the car sitting all four on the floor. Yesterday was trying to hook rods while jacked up. ( Light Bulb ) This may have been the issue. This morning I wiggled up under her searching for answers, with a little pull on break levers, an firm push on the rods, I got the pins to slide back in. I...

Well, this morning I got back under her working on this issue, seems to be going better. It took some adjusting, pushing and pulling, but I have the rods hooked back up. seems like she rolls ok in the garage. Im guessing my old stuff was just that worn, not use to all new and redone. I did...

I currently have my tank pulled out to fight this rust issue too. Keep watching to see what others use. Once I remove this light powder rust deal, I plan on using a sealing kit to never have to do this again.

I got a great deal on a set of A model axles. Front completely redone, powder coated , new rubber and tubes. Rear, wheels redone, axle complete. I got these to do a swap out while I rebuild my original. Was not til I got them home before I noticed these are 17 inch rims and tires. When did...

:( Starting the removal of my gas tank. One thing that is strongly noted, is that these parts have not been removed in like forever. fighting nuts, bolts and screws all the way. The cowl band was a real treat. broke off two screws on top of tank. Well anyways, Tank still not out after the...

Im glad to find this post. I too have been fighting the same rust issues. I am about to the point of pulling my tank to have it cleaned and relined. I just want it to end with the filter plugs and road side clean outs. as one member has mentioned a stove pipe in bottom of tank, no luck with this...
