my escort fuel filler has gone rusty so was thinking what other things i could do like fit one off a mk6 with the flap or may be weld it up and put the filler some where else

any thing else i could do also im going to run the normal fuel tank

here is what it looks like



was thinking something like this as well but what else would i need to fit that

weld up the hole, areo style fillet in a pollucarb rear 1/4 window.

or fit it in the doors shut hidden euro style

 

i removed my fuel cap for the same rust reason, and welded it up n smoothed it etc

its a mare to locate the cap anywhere drastically different and still retain the existing fuel tank, as there isnt much of a direct route to the tank entrance other than the existing pipe route, due to the rear chassis rail etc. im buyin an alloy fuel cell now cos the pipe route to the normal tank would end up kind of messy

also, when smoothing the cap area, u wil find that the rear quarter is a slightly different shape to the other side, it isnt completely flat, it very slightly flares out towards the cap area, so wen it comes to filler, u wil always end up with high spots round the rim of where the cap was, so filler kinda needs to be spread far and wide to lose it lol

 

forgot to say its a escort cabby but i am thinking about welding it up now
