I bought the door from a junkyard. They had to cut it out for me. The filler necks were different diameters so I welded some different sized muffler pipes to the filler neck on the tank (before it ever had a drop of gas put in it) to make up the difference.

There's a good bit of fabrication to make it all work together. It was worth it. Several people have asked me why my truck didn't have the tank in the cab like other trucks they've seen that "look like mine." I just smile and say "I moved it."

Here's a couple pics of it all together:
