Good under shots of factory fuel tank installed?
My 79 Rx-7 has been back halved, Previous owner used a 3 gallon fuel cell. Looking to get a large cell back in the car. Hopefullt the factory unit. Just need to see if it will still fit. A few pictures would help me out alot.

Thanks

Anything in particular you want to see; angles, locations, etc.? Would measurements be better?

A shot like this would be ideal with a measuring tape across the width and length.

thanks!

Is this what you are looking for?
It's a 32" by 16" inch tank by my measurements.
I wasn't able to have my measuring tape stay straight on the length but this should do.

That helps me out alot! Won’t be able to squeeze the OEM tank in after all. Tires are just too big. Thank you!
