1960 F500

I need to find a new fuel tank for this 1960 F500, possibly a sender unit... 1960 F500 F50J0K56837 is the serial number. Thanks!

Is this an in-cab (behind the seat) fuel tank, or is it located next to the frame rail behind the cab?

F50 = F500 / J = 223 1V I-6 / 0 = 1960 / K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant / 56837 = 1960 Numerical Sequence of Assembly.
C0TB-9002-B .. In-Cab Fuel Tank / Obsolete

1957 F700/900 // 1957/60 F100/600 // 1958/60 F700/800.

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any, none on ebay.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
B8C-9275-B .. In-Cab Fuel Tank Sending Unit / Obsolete

1957 F100/950 // 1958/60 F100/750.

Verify if the following are NOS or Chinese reproductions:

NOS PARTS SOURCE in Olathe KS has 1 = 913-220-5746.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 2 = 800-543-4959.

OBSOLETE RELIABLE PARTS in Nashville GA has 3 = 229-686-5101.

CARPENTER NOS OBSOLETE PARTS in Concord NC has 288 = 800-476-9653.

Texchech.
Unless I'm mistaken these are the same as the pickup trucks with the same cab. I have one that came from a 1960 F100, and one I think I pulled from a 59 F600 I had years ago Both of them look like the one in my 1960 f350. No idea whether the float or sending units are any good. Located near Lexington, Ky. They've been laying in the back of my shop dry for about 15 years, but I doubt any shipper would want to deal with them.

If you're going to be in the area to pick it up I'll let you have it. I'm not sure how shipping would work though.
