RetroMod Rigid Panhead Fuel Tank
Text and Photos by Doug Coffey
I started building my gas tank with a King Sportster tank shell available from Paughco. The picture shows I have already cut the ends out to receive the tunnel in the bottom.
Here I have already started building the bottom from a flat piece of sheet metal I cut out and a tunnel. The tunnel is 1/2 of a piece of automotive exhaust pipe I cut with a plasma cutter and cleaned up on a belt sander.
The elongated slots are for adding a rubber mount system. See Article for pictures!
