<marquee>Actually, here's an idea!</marquee>



Is there any way to run the fuel run from your hatch? The reason why I ask, is what about welding your gas tank shut, and smoothing it all over. Then run the fuel run from your hatch with a hidden cover on the side panel inside? Maybe it's a little too custom for some people...it's that damn lowrider and minitruckin blood in me! rolleyes.gif But this would sound like a cool idea. When you want to fill up, just get out, pop your hatch, open the hidden cover, and fill her up!

Phatty idea....but what about that gassy smell after you put some fuel in running through your car. Anyhow, I smoke too much, so I think I'd prefer my gas on the outside. heheheh wink.gif

Yeah, I know...it was just a thought and probably only feasable if your car was stricltly for show and not a daily driver. This is a popular mod with the minitruck crowd. They shave off their exterior door, and then relocate the fuel run to the inside of the bed. Oh well....back to the drawing board to come up with other ideas..... tongue.gif smile.gif
