Technical Model T Gas Tank in a 29 Roadster Question

I have a traditional 29 Highboy and I saw a picture of one with a Model T gas tank with a sender unit on it. Can they be bought that way or was it modified? I like the look of the tank versus the spun aluminum one I have now. I am 68 years young and I like the old look. THX. Jay Ocala, FL

 

Model T gas tanks do not come with any kind of sending unit. Most T guys use a graduated wooden stick thru the filler hole.

 

I use the stick and odometer technique.

 

I added a SW sending unit to a round Model T tank I had.

I don't know if they sell them that way though, I would imagine it was probably modified.

 

First gas gauge was an A model.

 

Stick and odometer for me.

 

Could you post a picture ?

 

How about adding one of these from a marine vendor to a repro tank?

 

Thanks for your ideas. I do like the marine fuel gauge. I will have to go on the hunt for one to check out the depth. THX. Jay

 

Lots of gas cap gauge style kits for ATVs

 

Look up The Hot Rod Company on line. I have a t tank in my roadster with a sending unit.
