BAD NEWS
well when my dad was welding my back bumper. we took off the fiber glass and put metel. and we did not know that gas tank had big rust holes. (thats why there was no gas so that ment $10 of gas gone from a year ago) and so a spark from the welder went into the hole in the gas tank. well fire or sparks and gas dont mix well BOOM well not that big but it moved my dad 2 feet back and alittle fire started in the tank so we put it out. nothing is damaged my dad is ok he found it cool he went back 2 feet. but my gas tank is well no good but good thing i had a spare from a parts car. here is a pic of my tank.

It's a good thing that tank had gapping holes in it like that. If a spark had found it's way into a much smaller hole, the "boom" would've been much bigger. Your dad could have had his ear drum blown out for a while.
