From: "Tom Scott" <shelbyguy@xxxxxxx>I went out this morning to replace the gas tank on my 60 4dr with a real nice replacement tank I purchased from Lowell Howe ( Imperial Saviour extrordinaire!!) I have been soaking the studs/nuts with penetrating oil for about 2 days now. Didn't matter, can't get the nuts off. I tried a nut buster, but not enough room to get it in position. If I put too much torque on the not, the mounting brackets that are welded onto the frame start twisting. I don't want to break those tabs off. Can anyone comment on the path of least resistance? I think my options are:1- cut the straps 2- cut the studsI don't know what's easier to get replace, the studs or the straps. I'm sure somebody has been down this road before.Thanx Tom 60 Crown Southampton.
