I "pulled" a RVZIO and bought a new home........smaller so I will have extra funds to finish the Corvette......and build a small shop 
We will move from my in-law's home in the next three weeks, since she is under 24 hour Invalid-Care now/her recovery is not looking optimistic any longer

Thanks MSGT-R. Things have settled down enough that I will give the fuel tank install another try this week. It would be nice to fill the tank after months of on&off fabricating!
