      Gas goes where?

      I have a favor to ask you guys in regards to getting a fuel tank or a fuel cell.

      I’m going to fix up my car (’68 Camaro - replacing springs, fuel system items, some interior work and some performance work) in order to sell it in the next few months. I am replacing my fuel tank due to a large dent. My dilemma is that the fuel cap that was originally at the rear of the car was shaved and smoothed and so when I need to fill up, the cap was inside the trunk. So I am limited to buying a stock tank and altering the nozzle or buying a fuel cell. My concern is that I thought I read somewhere that a fuel cell will conflict with many insurance providers. Any of you guys out there know of this or tell me would the resale value help with a “Fuel Safe” cell help?

      Mods, I’m sure that this goes somewhere else but I put it here because it is linked to insurance issues as well.

      It's shake and bake!!! and i helped!

      That seems odd since a Fuel Safe type cell is far safer than a stock tank.

      My insurance company didn't seem to care at all.. :shurg:

      I didn't have any discussions about fuel cells and such with my carrier. And they specialize in "enthusiast" cars...
