I have begun work on replicating the Janitrol tank for the rear deck. Luckily a friend had an oridinal piece for me to use.

Here are pics of the original and the beginnings of my replica. The main body will be detailed pipe and I will make a mold of the end with the 4 small tubes. Once finished I will hollow cast them in resin .

Looks great.

Location is in back of the driver where the window was replaced in front of the engine cover.

Here is a top view of the engine deck. Look to the left upper side. I have placed the words: Janitrol Heater Tank with a red arrow pointing at the tank. This is the location on the Time Machine.

I apologies for having to delete my past post photo. It was brought to my attention that it was not a screen grab photo but of someone elses Time Machine. So I deleted it from my computer.

Here is a top view photo of my costum made Time Machine showing the location of the Janitrol Heater Tank. Please note, the tank in my photo is not an authentic piece but, a crudely made replica. It is not accurate and no one should use it for reference.
