I'm looking for a new or used econoline gas tank. Anything that will fit a 65 van. Preferably one without holes. Does anyone know where I might be able to find one? I've checked Mac's Antique with no luck. Are there any sources for NOS or new tanks?

thanks

 

Welcome to FTE

C5UZ9002A .. Fuel Tank-14 gallons / Obsolete

Fits: ALL 1961/67 Econolines

Sorry...no Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

There are neoprene bladders you can buy that will fit inside the tank.

Most radiator shops can repair fuel tanks. I had a bladder installed in a Studebaker Hawk several years ago,

No problem since.

 

Thanks for the info. I looked into having a radiator shop repair it but I live in Hawaii and for some reason the EPA stopped all the radiator shops from repairing gas tanks. One person's blog says they sent their tank to Gas Tank RENU - USA and were very happy with the results but I'm not sure the sealant will be able to seal all the holes. Some are almost an 1/8 of an inch in diameter. Have you seen any gas tank sealers that will fill a hole that big?

 

no one is reproducing these tanks but some people have been able to fit 69 mustang tanks need to have filler and vent holes moved and longer straps but it is an option check out vintage vans . com for more info
