I finished cleaning up the fuel lines that were removed for the frame repairs. Lots of wire brushing to get the dirt out of the coils.
I got the new tank ready today. It is a Spectra 42B tank that I got via rockauto.com at a helluva discount. I put the old sending unit in with a new O-ring and redid the USSteel date stamp with the stencil that InlineTube sells. Their decal is close to accurate but it is missing the day section. It only has the month and year, whereas the original date stamp had month/day/year. So I had to carfully pick away at the stencil after I painted the main portion, and then had to reuse a couple numbers to get the "30" in the 12-30-70 date sequence. (yes, the steel used in the tank was over a year old when they made the tank!).
