Tank Armor in
After looking at the rear collision damage of my friend's 66 coupe (car was total loss) andinspecting the trunk area in which the tank was several perforation ( gas leak during the collision but no fire) we both agree that the trunk area don't have the greatest protection.
Few weeks after while attending a local automobile swapmeet I found a brand new tank armor from a vendor that had purchased but never installed because sold his Mustang, the price was rigth and I was impress by the construction, made of a 11 gauge steel and weigthing 30 pounds I decided to install iton my FB. After completion was appearent that give the trunk area excellent structural strength.
Installation was very simple about 15 minutes, here are some of the pics.

Something between this and one of those high end fuel cells would be nice. Seems like there would be a justifiable market for one.
hmmm..oh right... that little word called 'liability'... nobody wants to touch it.
