This was done to many of the older cars with the troublesome manual fuel pumps so that an electric could be installed. As long as you are not concerned with originality, what you propose is perfectl

Some advice from a self proclaimed "purist". I personally would love my frogeye to look the same as the day it rolled off the factory floor - warts and all. Unlike some, I do not begrudge you the ri

Sorry, do not know the gauge. But, I've found that scrap body panels from other British cars of the same vintage work best. That way the metal is likely compatable for content as well as thickness.
