Hi Ed. Yes, I've seen Scale Art's fuel tank mounts too. To be honest, they aren't any more accurate then what Wedico offers for mounting solutions. I'm looking for something that looks more realistic.



Scale Art's tank mounts for the Wedico.



The 1:1 Peterbilt tank mounts and straps.



Might be a tall order, but hopefully I end up with a halfway decent facsimile.

actually if you added the top hanger to the scale art it would me exactly like the real thing. Just take the one in the picture and turn it upside down part of the upper bracket is there just make it long. Ed
