    Is anyone reproducing the fuel sending unit for wagons yet? Mine is leaking and I'm getting tired of the raw fuel smell every time I fill up.

    If the unit is still working, add a caulking around the flange. Make sure whatever you use is resistant to the gas when set up. Mine had the same problem a few years ago, even with a new gasket. Caulking / sealant fixed it.
    Does Tanks Inc make a unit for the wagons?

    I have an Auto City Cl***ic tank in my '54 Ranch Wagon. Not sure where I got the sender. The car isn't on the road yet so I have no idea how well the gauge will work and its been converted to 12 volts. Time will tell. But the tank fit perfectly.

    Another Auto City Cl***ic tank - perfect! I use a sender and adaptor ring because I have aftermarket gauges. But I did have the Stinkys from the stock vent - I plumbed it to the back of the ch***is and added a filter...
