.. Or cut the bottom out of one of your plastic tanks and bend the ali into it to form the top. Then use the bottom as a form for the ali bottom. You already have the pump/filter assy on a plate.
It would need a clever new filler neck to join the tank to the cover. But you'd be using the same cap with the key.
No need to make a fibreglass cover as you already have the bottomless plastic one.(now in need of a re-spray! But never to be affected by fuel again.)

If you cut it in the right place it would spring over the ali tank and you'd still use the rubber frame feet.
