I am moving my gas tank to under the bed behind the rear end. Does anyone know if a tank for the 47 & up trucks would fit? I would like something low profile so it wouldn't be readily noticeable.

I used a 49-52 chevy car poly tank I believe it came from Chevy of the 40's.

I went with Gman's advice and used the 49 chevy poly tank, got it installed last night. It tucks under the rear crossmember nicely.

I got it from Tanks Inc in Iowa. Actually ordered two different ones, as I was not sure which would work better, and returned the one I didn't need. They were great to work with.
