  Gas tank support brackets and new rubber pads.jpg - The gas tank back board support brackets and the new rubber pads. The brackets were sandblasted by Brian at his shop, and frankly, it could get moist in the back storage area. It's only surface rust, but I'll disassemble them and reblast. I tried straightening the old split rivets, but they snapped on reinstallation.
