I picked up a 1971 GMC Suburban last weekend in Oregon. Trailered it home against 25 mph head winds and snowy roads. Made it home in CA after 14 hours due to only being able to go 45 mph with fishtailing. Happy as can be, but have my work cut out for me. Hoping to get a little help from the members here on a few things along the way. Previous owner made a custom tank, but no sending unit. I purchased new tank with sending unit and straps, but can't find any wire to hook up to sending unit. Don't even see a cut off wire. Can anyone tell me where it comes from... along the frame, or from the corner chanel with the tailights wiring?
