Dozen's of folks have done this. Suggest you use the "search" function to find out what others have done. Do some reading then ask specific questions of those who've done it.

The topic has come up on number of occasions, here's the most resent link from couple days ago: Mu experience has been that if you have any questions majority of the membership have not problem emailing if there are any questions.

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...-gas-tank.html

As suggested, there should be lots of info, if run a search and narrow field to the 61-66 forum.

Link to couple articles: With these links, and the info the other members posted in the previous thread, there may be enough to make the conversion. Issue with me has been where to place the filler neck. With the 'styleside' bed seems there are lot of options, with the 'flareside', somewhat limited.
