Has anyone built an enclosure/box for an external fuel tank? Any pictures or instructions would be greatly appreciated! '67 16ft Razorback restoration, '68 Chrysler 55hp outboard.

Any Ideas? Just going to hide the red fuel tank somehow.

Well since no one else chimed in.....

I built this setup in the rear of my boat:

There's a 12 gallon "permanent" tank behind the port side jump seat but I plan on putting a 12 gallon portable in the box also:

The box was built strongly to support a fishing seat:

On my last boat, which was a closed bow, I "mounted" a 12 gallon portable up under the bow using cooler mounting brackets that can find at Cabelas/Gander Mtn, etc.
