Under frame at rear gas tank option?

1967 1968 1969 1970 71 72 Ford F100 Pickup Plastic Gas Conversion Tank Kit New | eBay


Anyone know what gas tank this is? Or what the fill options are ie. in bed fill? body side fill?

I sure as heck do because I have one that I need to install.

... it's a 72-80 International Scout II tank.

Get it from MTS Company and look up the PN on the label... it's either with or without emissions: MTS COMPANY, L.C. - Scout fuel tanks

Thanks HIO. Can it be installed with an in box filler? It's too late to add a filler door on the side of my box. And will it fit under a short box because my frame is 4" shorter at back. Where did you buy yours and what sender works?

I dug a little further and it looks like the Scout sending unit is the same ohms as Ford pickup.

Yup. That's correct.

In-box? Sure. At a Goodguys show there was a Bump with a filler coming up from the bed floor up to the bed rail and a cap on top. I posted a pic in here before. I'll see this PM if I can find it again.

I can't tell for sure, but it looks like a boat fuel fill unit.
