Zusammenfassung:	A blow moulding process is disclosed for making the products (10) having at least one substantially solid attachment (20) projection unitary with and projecting outwardly from an exterior wall (12). The process comprises the steps of: (A) forming a molten plastic parison; (B) enclosing the parison within a cavity formed by cooperating blow moulding die parts, a void in fluid communication with such cavity and having a configuration corresponding to that desired for the attachment projection being provided at a parting line between one and another of the die parts; (C) introducing fluid pressure into the parison to expand it outwardly within the cavity and to flow molten plastic into the void; and (D) opening the blow mold and removing the product. A second aspect of the invention provides a motor vehicle fuel tank (10) comprising a blow moulded exterior wall (12) having (a) at least one substantially solid attachment projection (20) unitary with and projecting outwardly from an exterior surface (11) of such wall (12), and (b) a heat shield (30) mounted on such attachment projection in fixed space relation to the exterior surface of the tank wall (12).
