Finally back to working on the Z

After a very long and busy fall semester, I am getting a chance to work on removing the gas tank and anti-freeze. I was hoping that there was only going to be a couple of gallons of gas, but unfortunately there was 7 gallons! It took awhile to drain it and store it in tanks and I am disposing of it safely. My hands, despite having latex gloves on (the gas destroyed them!), were dried up and itchy for a couple of days after handling the gasoline. The tank strap bolts are fairly frozen up so I am working on loosening those up. Looks like I may have a trade of the gas tank for an interior door panel and steering column cover. However, how do I ship a gas tank? I imagine lots of duct tape...
