New Gas Tank Doesn't For Properly

Re: New Gas Tank Doesn't For Properly
I have bought three of that same tank. On two of them I needed to egg shape the holes on the straps to get them to work. The third on fit perfectly. Jeffrey

The filler tube is a tough job to get into the floor and side panel and to line up with the tank and get the copper breather tube in correctly. Just installed this one two weeks ago, had my daughter

Re: New Gas Tank Doesn't For Properly
Hey Gang,
I also bought one of these new stainless steel tanks for my 47 Sedan. I was excited about getting it for my car. Its a real pretty thing with nice looking welds but it didn’t fit my car.

Be aware that early CC gas tanks are not the same as CD gas tanks.

Re: New Gas Tank Doesn't For Properly
Yes , Steve is correct.I bought one from Dave Edwards 3 years ago for the Guppy. The Guppy is built on a CC chassis and the old tank was a CC tank. The new one bolted right in. Easy Peasy.

Lug Nut Torque
Does anyone know if there is a specified lug nut torque? I know they're probably all the same but I'm working on a 51 Hot Shot.

That could be Jim Olivers' from Syracuse NY. If not, He does have a blue Hot Shot with a plexi-glass hood.
