The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Gast tank recommendation needed 57 truck

I am restoring my 57 chevy truck and want to put a gas tank under the bed, but I don't really want to spend $450 for an aluminum tank kit. I've heard of people putting a new Mustang tank under the bed of this truck for a LOT less money. Anyone know anything about that or have any other recommendations?
Thank you, David

There have been a lot of guys around here who have done it. I did mine different but no one seems to like my way. Thats ok. I would measure the space where you want to put it and go to a friendly salvage yard and try to find one that will fit. You will have to modify the filler tube. BE CAREFULL. Gas tanks can explode like a BIG bomb.Some one else will probably give you some more specific details. Good luck. I know it can be done.
