Nice truck, TM. I think I am looking at a wood base and hood and I can see a bit of glass between them. Looking forward to seeing the tank set up.

Nice truck! lol Good luck with that big ol' heavy thing, don't hurt yourself. It's plumb amazing what glass can weigh--it just looks so . . . . airy.

A 180 weighs 338# empty, 2100# full (aprox) size is 72X24X25. A 175 should be close to the same.
