Hi westend,
Make it aluminum (no accidental sparks) and vented. Perhaps even plastic?

What about a closed steel box, either on the tongue or on the rear bumper?
Power vented or on a timer. like the blower on a boat's engine compartment. Really no too way I know to fully contain gasoline and vapors.
I should have added that I personally don't carry anything in my TT that I need to worry about fumes. If I did a vented box on the outside would be the way to go.
As for not fully containing gas vapors the fuel tank on your car does a purty good job. Yes, there vented but, these days even that is vented through a charcoal canister to keep the fumes from getting out to the atmosphere. I know this because on the stupid 04 Chevy pickup I got they put the canister below the truck where it gets full of dirt and then I have a difficult time putting gas in the tank because the air will not escape quickly enough and the gas burbles back up the filler neck shutting off the gas nozzle. Some day I need to get under there and find a better way to vent the tank.
