Not into that ratbike look, Dodge?
That particular tank is several years old, and has been banged around on my karts, so it's got a bunch of dents, and there's a ton of brazing on the bottom where a mounting bracket tore off and ripped out the bottom of the tank...but it doesn't leak...I just checked it...
I scored a few bends in 1-1/8" and 1-1/4" tubing from a mower/snowblower scrap pile, so I'll add them to my 'let's make a header' bucket of bends...and I made a simple strap mount for the propane fuel tank...still need to weld it to the drilled frame mount, and weld that piece to the frame...I'll get that done when I tear the bike down to move the engine plate and add j-shaft mounts.
