Gas Tank Swap

I replaced the new Mustang tank that the previous owner installed with a tank that was designed to fit a 76-77 Maverick and 75-80 Granada. A non-leader fuel filler was used to complete the swap.

Not only did the Mustang tank looked unsafe the way it was mounted with the old bed frame angle iron and threaded rods holding things together. The way it was mounted it looked like the long bolts sandwiching the gas tank flange would let the angle iron swing apart and alow the tank to fall when crossing an uneven intersection or train track.

I know that I could make the Mustang gas tank work but why re-invent the wheel when you don't have to. I used longer strap bolts to get from point A to point B because of the tank's larger size.
