    I've done a quick search on the web and can't find new tanks for the 52-54 Fords. If any of you guys have a place that i can get one. Forward me a link or a number. It would be much appreciated.
    Thanks, Frank

    Hey, I did miss that info. Thanks Jeff.
    I was about to get ready to purchase tank,but thats what was keeping me from buying the 52-54 tank. I was thinking, how different are the 52-54 to the 55-56 tanks. The price difference is a bit much, so it's worth investigating.
    My wife has a 55 fairlane and my 53 will be back home soon. I'll have the chance to check and compare.
    I'll post info to confirm
