A cool 56 Chevy half ton with a flat bed. I am in need of a recommendation for buying a replacement gas tank and advice as to what I need to purchase along with it. It leaks and stinks. Anybody have a source they would recommend for this and future needs? Thanks | | | | | Joined: Feb 2009 Posts: 22 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Feb 2009 Posts: 22 | I just bought one for my 57 from Classic parts along with the new sender and gasket. It fit like a champ and now no more leaks. But I'm not sure I will ever get the stink of the old varnished gas out of the interior. It is getting better each day, but when it warms up the odor is still there. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,597 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,597 | I also bought a Classic Parts tank and it was easy to install and fit perfectly. One thing you can do is to use baking soda just like in your fridge it will help absorb odors. I stuck a couple down in the corners when I parked my truck and eventually it has gone away. Change them often and just be careful not to spill them and make a mess. | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 8 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2009 Posts: 8 | Many thanks for the help. I have ordered the catalog from Classic parts. I know I will find this site really helpful in all phases of this project. | | |
