Hello List,
 
Well, the good news is that I got my '58 body and chassis back from the shop
after 15 months and it looks terrific!  So, I started first to install the
fuel system starting with the gas tank.  After wrestling with the tank and
fuel lines all the way up to the fuel pump I was feeling pretty good and
figured putting the fuel inlet hose and cap on would be a good finish for
the day.  
 
Well, I am not seeing how this short hose and threaded sleeve will go on
under the rear deck... and I don't recall how it came off.   As tight as the
tank was to maneuver into position I can't think that it would go on before
the tank was installed.  Can someone help with the proper sequence of events
for this?  As much as I would hate to have to take the tank out again, if I
must, I must,
 
Thanks in advance,
