Who has done in any pics out there? Thinking I'm going to have to it back almost to the tail lite. I'll post up pics tonight of what I mean.

moving the fuel door

I've grafted in a fuel door into a box side that didn't have one. Moving one back a little wouldn't be too hard, except maybe having to alter the fuel fill tube...
Anyways, my pics in case they help any at all.
Donor fuel filler door from a Suburban:
my repair area showing the back side of the fuel filler area:
Section of bedside with filler door grafted in:
If you're moving it back it'll be somewhat easier than what I had to deal with. I had the flare of the wheel opening at the corner of my fuel door assembly. Made things a bit more interesting.
I think you could use an elbow of some sort for the fuel filler neck part..
Somewhat finished, at least this is how it sits right now:
