The "best" option is a 22 gallon tank from spec'ed for a 70 Mustang. Fabrication is required and a crossmember has to be moved back. Its filler will be through the bed.

A side-fill option is a tank from a 72-78 International Scout. The filler can be either through the bedside or bed rail. Again, fabrication is required.

Links are provided in the most recent posts of the Tech Thread Compilation sticky.

Yuuup... I have MTS' 72-80 Scout tank too. I'm pondering the idea of using a Cobra flip-open cap.
