Not sure. This is just fence boards and temporary.

Not perfect by any means, but better then nothing I guess. Need to figure out the gas door board now.

Doesn't the gas cap just screw into the bung on the fuel cell? If so a simple nipple extension should work.

Cutout a simple design in the board (bowtie maybe?) machine a finger slot in the cutout piece and glue some small neodymium magnets on the back to contact the steel framework.

Hinged. Still a few things to work out, but it's operational.

Even a spot for my prop rod. Not sure if this setup is ghetto or not. LOL

looks good to me. no one would ever know it was there just looking at it. if you have some magnets to keep it from bouncing it will be a good setup to run for quite a while.

Go to like home depot or lowes and get like 6 to 10 cabinet magnets. nice thing you can set it up to have it as a push type. you push down on the wood and it pops up like a inch and when done you push the wood back down flush.
try this link 2.47 each
