Re: Original style fuel tanks for Suburban/Panel?

That Carid tank is still wrong tank. It still is for behind seat in cab of regular pick up.

Working on a 56 panel truck for my buddy - model 3105 - and found factory GM part # in assy manual but no luck locating one so he sent original tank out somewhere. They cut it open, cleaned and coated - then also coated outside. Looks great!! Watch out as fuel pick up / sender is also different. My buddy purchased one - and feed to line is going opposite way - and if rotated holes will not line up and float will hit baffle in tank. So another project to cut, rotate and solder back together - including float mount.
Fall Carlisle in 2 weeks - maybe one there for sale?? Should check Craigslist PA to see.
Good Luck !!
Bob from NH.
