I have nothing very constructive to add other than I no longer think the two 914 tanks and fuel systems I just finished working on are a pain in the ass.

I ran a Zink Formula Vee for a number of years in vintage. The original tanks in the Zink C-4 were 2 side mounted tanks. For safety and other reasons most of these cars have had other tanks built over the years and relocated to behind the seat or other locations depending on the driver's size, etc. Mine was a single 3 gallon tank that was still side mounted with the battery opposite that to help with the balance. If you are just looking to run the car at shows and it won't go very far, perhaps at least a temp solution is a small custom tank located somewhere else while you figure out this rats nest of wood, etc.

What condition is the wood in? In some of the pics it looks pretty dark and dried out.
