Yes.
All the things that we did can be reversed if a restorer wants to return to stock.
Some folks cut a hole and remove the bracket and weld a patch. Then the tank is very difficult to return to stock condition. Then you have bare steel inside the tank that will rust because all the Terne coating has been burned off the inside of the tank.
The whole problem is caused by folks using the steering wheel to pull themselves into the car.
The 31 bracket removes the strain on the tank and makes it very unlikely that it will ever leak again.
