Hi Wayne
Lookin' good Mate!
Just a suggestion - try to use a tail tank from a Swindell "Channel Lock", Kinser "Superman" or the most recent "Quaker State" kit.
It has the smaller, lower profile you need for the "Bomshell" ride.
If you have none of those kits, don't panic - the Parts Box have it in resin.
If you're still stuck I can show you how to cut it down to something like the right profile yourself - a bit more labour-intensive though!
Hope you don't mind my suggestion - not obligatory; but knowing your standards on drag models (i.e., really good) I thought I'd offer this advice.
Cheers
