Bastardized 1959 "Coronet" build

Did a few small things yesterday.. Found and fixed a rattle from one of the tailpipes. Added a catch basin, if you will, around the fuel filler cap. I modified the filler so now I can get the gas station nozzle in there without using an additional nozzle from a gas can. Auto shutoffs are still iffy, I'll revisit this at some point.

And the big news? I modified the 1959 exterior door handles so they engage the 1998 mechanism and the doors can be opened from the outside. No more making sure the windows are open cuz only the interior door handles were working.
 
I hang my head in shame... I see I referred to George Barris as Chuck earlier in this thread... I'm sorry George..,
