How many gallons of gas does the tank hold on my stock ‘51 panel truck?


1 1951 Chev Panel with a 350 small block, automatic tranny.
1 2004 Chev 2500 HD pickup... stock
1 1950 Chev 5 window pickup; 261 c.i. engine, 4 on the floor.

With lots of time and money, any Stovebolt can be restored.

Pretty sure the half tons had smaller gas tanks than the one tons. My 1953 half ton panel held 16 gallons.
