Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 219 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 219 | I need a new gas tank for my '66 Panel. I saw an underbed gas tank kit at American Classic for 205.00. It appears from the photo that it would line right up with the fuel fill tube. The one thing I will be sacficing is the cutout for the spare tire. The '66 currently has a 16 gal. tank. The kit tank is 20 gal.. Before I order the tank, has anyone used this tank for the Panel truck application? I did locate a used Panel truck tank for the same price. But, if the pickup truck underbed tank kit will work, I'd rather go in that direction. All input is greatly appreciated!! Thanks,

I've got one "leftover" from a '71 Chevelle that I plan to put between the framerails. Just wondering what obstacles I might run into? Even fabbing a few brackets, seems a lot easier than shelling out the $$ they're asking for these "kits". Or what problems am I not considering?
Cheers,
mark.

May work for a 'burb too. They sell it as a kit which includes the straps and sendor. I'm leaning real hard in this direction when I get to that point,
