mustang tanks

hey all , im thinking about using a mid 60,s mustang tank in the rear frame rials of my 56 f-100 has anyone had any experience with this looks pretty straight forward , and fit looks good too , after relocating the crossmember to the very rear ,

 

I installed a 20 gal. 69 Mustang tank in my 55. Other than moving a cross member it's an easy install. Take look at this link.

John's explanation of the install is the same way mine was put in.

 

just did it on a Model A PU

 

I did it on my '49 Chevy PU.

 

Did it with my 67 F-100, couldn't be easier and works with the stock fuel gauge. And they're pretty cheap too, I got one with the sending unit on ebay for about $70. The filler hose is pretty big diameter, won't work with many aftermarket gas cap kits, I cut the bolt flange off an old mustang filler and cut the angle out of the tube... so its just a little nub sticking off the gas tank and I access it with a door in the bed floor.

 

We can get you those tanks here at gambinos, and have all the tank dimensions if you need them. 408 479 4812 give us a call we would be glad to help

 

There is a 22 gallon reproduction available for the 69-70 Mustang/Cougar if you'd like a little more range...

Here's an install thread....
