Re: Keep the original gas tank?
This seems to be a question where you have advocates for both sides. Either way, it needs to be done as safe as possible. When I get to the point I am thinking of sealing and enclosing the area my '57's stock tank is in and venting it separately than the fuel vent. Not much different than what a guy building an early '30's coupe/roadster or muscle car guy does when putting the tank in the trunk. I am not a fan of tanks clear at the back of a truck as that seems to be a first place for damage in a rear ender. Side tanks seem hard to find a place and tank to fit. I have considered a larger Moon style tank in the front of the bed. Not a fan of filling over the bed side and taking up bed space tho but the jury is still out on that one.
