Does anyone have an easy way to get that last bolt on each side of the gas tank that holds it to the belt rail??? It is a 1929 coupe. See pictures.

I was thinking about gluing the nut in first, trying to get in though the bottom, etc. Anyone have an easy way to do it?

Thanks

Don's "tape the nut to a wrench" tip has always worked for me. Also, do not tighten any of the screws or bolts until all of them are started.

Thanks guys. Guess this old mind of mine has faded a bit. I do now remember the old tape trick on some nut I had to get in awhile back.
