Gas
cap and splash panels |

I installed the LaMans gas cap. It was a little nerve racking because this was the first time I drilled new holes into the body. Cutting the filler pipe and connecting to the gas tank was just like the instructions said and was easy. However there was no mention of this little black wire in the kit. Ohhh this must be a grounding wire so there are no sparks around the gas cap. Say that is a good idea. I wondered for a moment about the poor guy that realized that was necessary. Then I went back to work. |

I installed the front splash panels. This took a bit of trimming of the aluminum but nothing a little time and patience could not handle. I decided to screw the panels in place for now instead of using rivets just in case I need to take them off when the body goes on. Of course I never plan on driving in slop so these panels should always be this clean... yeah right! |

The rear
splash panel was much easier to install. Very little trimming
needed to get it to fit nicely into place. This shot shows my cleco pins holding the panel in place but they were replaced with screws for now just like I did in the front. |
