When it comes to CNG conversions, some folks refer to a single-point injection setup as "closed loop" and to multi-point injection as "positive pressure". Anyway, I'm not so used to those older EFI setups, but oxygen sensors were not so common at least until mid-'80s.

I'm surprised that they didn't make a roof hatch to get in/out. Weld up the doors and climb in through the lid!

Interesting "hauler", but I bet the purists out there are having a fit over chopping up 2 to make 1. But there's respectable metal work and a lot of time spent, so thumbs up for creativity.
