Mike,
Welcome to the forum. You've come to the right place. Lots of old hot rodders here and lots of help if you need it. I wish I had your bike. That is going to be an enjoyable build. If it was mine...I'd have to make that tank functional. Keep us posted with the progress and send pix when you can of the build.

I agree with Tom, that could be a sweet build, especially if you can make the in frame tank functional. I have built six MB's and my next one is going to have a similar tank, if I can make it work.

Welcome to the forum, I am also a former hot rodder and muscle car fanatic.

John
