No problem, what I like about them is they were used for many years (CHEAP new, under $100) and they have the in tank tray for fuel injection if needed. I have pics of the install in both my truck builds.

Thanks for that link, it says free shipping, I'll have to contact them to see if that is true as well to Canada. They say they ship to Canada.

Hey Eddie,
Welcome Aboard! We used the same tank as Hillbilly Bob - 22 gallon
1970 Mustang Tank from Rock Auto - though I paid $120.. There is a post on here from jniolin showing how to do it.
The one issue I'd use some thought on is the Sending Unit for your tank.
It has to be able to talk to your gauge using the same Ohms. We had late model Autometer gauges looking for a modern Ohm - 200 ohms empty. The '70 Sending unit was something like 11ohms to 77 ohms empty.
We soldered a modern universal sending unit onto the '70 & it all works great.
Good luck over there in Arkansas.

Those tanks aren't reporduced that I know of. Their protected within the frame. Only problem is, if you want to install a modern master cylinder & booster it gets in the way by a couple inches. I'm sure you could sell if you were so inclined.

I thought someone was reproducing them, I have no use for this one and not sure how good it is. There is rust on different locations on the outside and not sure what the inside looks like.
