[DeTomaso] Front trunk fuel cell?

[michael@michaelshortt.com]

There are two ways to go about this if you want a custom fitted cell.

Use cardboard to fabricate the box that fits and label the parts ( bottom,
top, the four sides and indicate where you want the fuel pick up and filler.

Or

Section off the area where it goes ( block off brake m/c)
And either crave a block of foam to fit where you want it to go or fill up
a super large
Trash bag with expanding foam and let it harden in the space.

Then send either your cardboard pattern or foam block to the fabricator.

Don't trust measuements alone.
