Wondering if an S10 tank might work in place of my 49 Panel tank.
Any you frame swappers have time to measure your tank ?

There are at least two different S-10 tanks. I have a 87 that was originally a 2.8/4spd truck that has the smaller tank that does not extend under the cab at all. The larger tanks have a "step" that tucks under the cab a little. I can measure my "smaller" tank if that helps you at all.

Sure thanks ! Then I can look at what room is under my old heap.

If the smaller tank is 13.2 maybe you won't need to check yours.

That would be worth it if my panel was really nice.

May consider the 70 Mustang idea like on the trucks, put my spare inside ?
My tank is pretty rough.

Good thing about not having any money is I can't rush out and buy stuff.
I've got all this time (as I'm saving) to think and look at options.
What do you think about this ?
