there are several ways to go about a tank relocation. Some have used bronco tanks, toyota tanks I have heard fit well, I used a 64-68 mustang fuel tank but the filler now comes throught the bottom of the bed, not good if you haul a bunch of stuff. I have also heard the early 70's munstang tanks fit as well and they are 18 gallons, mine is 16. the hardest part is figuring out were to run the filler neck. There has been lots of conversation on this subject, do a search of the forums maby you will find your awnser there.

You might also try Aero Tanks in Cali. website aerotanks.com. I think I will go that route when I move mine.
