    Is it any more dangerous to have the petrol tank in the quarter panel rather than under the car? In an accident is it likely to rupture?

    In would suggest you contact Brown Davis direct and ask them how many of their tanks have ruptured and crisped their owners. None I suspect, they look very well made, of thicker steel than the tin can tanks fitted to many other cars in vulnerable places.

    Yeh, very droll.
    But where, and how do you get access to it? Is there much modification to existing fuel lines, wiring etc?

    For access you drop the tank. Not a massive task, there's nothing under it. I think the plumbing/wiring just needs unclipping and moved to the right hand side, slightly forward as the pump lives close to the wheel.
