    Measured the hole in the trunk of my Maverick where the gas tank used to be. I think I'm gonna order a fuel cell tomorrow rather than cut the trunk floor. Gee thanks Boyer! :rofl2:

    gave the go ahead for the cars second transmission build in 2 years. just so you know, you really should get the torque converter properly seated before you bolt in your transmission. unless you like silver atf.:rant2:

    I have that homemade tank that came in my car that would fit real nice in yours! It needs repaired but you wouldn't have to go through all that crap of making something fit. Just something to consider!
