We just finished cleaning the original fuel tanks and removing the water tanks. See the pictures here: http://reno2.com/alden/images/949/Reno/20050123/
The pictures aren't great, but they show something interesting. From what I've heard, most Challengers have the keel bolts visible from within the fuel tanks. Mine aren't; seems like someone upgraded it by glassing them over. Look at this photo: http://reno2.com/alden/images/949/Reno/ ... 1.jpg.html
What do you think of this? Should I cut out the glass and inspect the bolts or just let it be? I'm leaning towards cutting one of them open just to see what's under it!
Regarding the water tanks, these look original to me, stainless steel? Unfortunately no access port, so I need to identify some sort of access port that I can buy and bolt to the top. Any ideas? I'm thinking two ports/lids that screw off, one on each side.
