Re: SkinnyG's '61 Apache

I should meet this guy....

Ok, ok....

On one hand I'm a little lazy and I want the easy option.

On the other hand, I don't want to ruin the originality of the truck.

On both hands, I don't even know what that last sentence means.

I'm formulating a plan.

In other fitment ideas, I originally intended to fit air tanks inside the backs of the stepside fenders, figured I could mount two three-gallon tanks in there.

Road grime concerns me with the longevity of the tanks there, but as it turns out, the five-gallon tank that came with my kit should fit just fine against the driver's rear X-brace leg, beside the driveshaft.
