I have a 1990 Honda CRX. I want to put a fuel tank and nitrous bottle in the back hatch
area.
(I don't want to mess with the stock fuel tank: hard to drain, can't tell condition of it,
hard to plumb, stock fuel lines go through driver compartment, etc).
I don't want to build a steel bulkhead right behind the driver seat because with the roll
cage, it will be very difficult for me. I also don't want to block my rear vision.
My question:
Can I just build a steel box with lid in the rear hatch/spare tire area, and put the fuel
tank and nitrous bottle inside?
Any tips on how to build the box?
What thickness steel would be considered adequate? .024? .032? .040?
Any other considerations I haven't thought of?
I couldn't find any relavent info when I searched.
Thanks,
Jeff
