When I drove my two 61's ,1/2 ton long fleet Chevy apache and a GMC 3500 flatbed the gas gauge was broken on both. I kept a wooden stick and used it as a dip stick to tell how much was in the tank. Never ran either one of those out of gas either. Had those 2 trucks plus a 66 C 60, a 67 GMC Camper cruiser and a 71 custom c 20 and was never scared about the tank in the cab. Never smelt any fumes either.
