1967: First year FoMoCo offered an auxillary fuel tank for F100/350's, used in conjunction with in-cab fuel tank.
Manually operated fuel tank selector valve on floor adjacent to the drivers side of the seat switched the tanks. Toggle switch below dash switched the dash fuel gauge from one tank to the other.
For many years, aftermarket companies offered single and saddle auxillary fuel tanks.
Thru 1955: 6V positive ground / 1956 thru today: 12V negative ground.

I'll betcha if you have an auxillary or saddle tanks, they're aftermarket, cuz there was no such thing available from FoMoCo back then.

Sounds like the fuss is about the fuel door in the side of your bed?
If you want to use that fuel door, I would hit the junk yards with a tape measure and find a tank that fits between your frame rails. Thats what I did I found a 22 gal tank from a rodeo but the fill is on the other side. Seems like early bronco's filled on that side and would be about right.
Good luck in your quest.

Lovable counts for a lot.... My 9' flareside bed has a factory made hole on the drivers side. I always wondered why, but then I saw a '65 9' flareside .with a gas cap there. So now I know the bed I found came from a '65 or '66. Now you got ME thinking of an aux tank.... to fill that hole. A PO riveted a crude patch over it, but from the inside you can see it's a neat factory hole. With the recent fluxuations in fuel prices, it could be a money saver........

I can almost feel the excitment here in the land of taxes! Hey by the way Gary, have you had enough rain lately or has all that stuff missed you?
