Gaa! The video has an error, what was it?
The video was on the wrong side of the post.

Hey, remembering my 66 Mustang, how about putting the filler cap under the license plate, right in the center of the rear end? That would suit everyone.

No no. Anywhere but the rear. I got rear-ended at a filling station once but was fortunately standing off to the side.

Just the filler line and cap...the tank could be in a safer place. I wondered how common gas pump accidents are and looked it up....seems that is a common place for all kinds of accidents!

Yikes! No-o-o-o-o-o Please not that. I got more cuts and scrapes from that stupid design on my mother's Cadillac (I hated that stupid car for many reasons and this was definitely one of them). :-) Z
I re-posted.

WOW - I feel your pain! That's even worse than the yellow Pinto I had to drive. My buddy was constantly ribbing me about it. He stopped laughing the day his dad brought home a Pacer.
When I finally saved up enough to buy my first car it was a used '72 Monte Carlo. Now that was a car! The one pictured here was just like it and if I remember correctly the gas cap was behind the license plate.

The car I actually paid for when I turned 16yrs old (aka. first car) was a '63 Chevy II. The VERY one my babysitter in SW Denver owned when I was growing up there. It was down hard for tranny issues (and at $1.19 an hour, 50 bucks for a used one took a while). Thus, I drove the green "birth control" car (cool on a 'Cuda, not on a Pinto Wagon.) Man OG, I'd love to have a Monte Carlo in that condition now!
