Default Fuel tank assembly

Some time ago I had new fuel tanks manufactured, this week I salvaged the old fuel tank drain fittings from the wreck and sand blasted them.
They came up really good, so with those and the other fittings I started to rivet them into the tanks.
Utilised old style cold rivets that I have collected over time.

See the pics for progress.

The only item I require is to have 2 steel rings cut for the mount for the fuel pick up fittings; and will look at getting them cut during the week.
