In Cab Tank

My '77 shortbed has dual tanks...behind the seat and another between the frame rails behind the axle.


I went to buy new gas caps for the thing and it seems that a behind the seat tank is unusual for a '77?


Ended up going with a '72 chevy cap...that worked. (eek! Chevy parts!)


So what's the deal? Do I have a unicorn?

I've only seen it on High Boys (F250 4WD), but truck parts catalog lists it for all F100/350's.
