Re: Renovation project from Kuwait

A little word of advice a good man:

Now is a good time to address the wavy fuel gauge needle, when you have easy access to the tank and everything is taken apart. I saw the tank and it reminded me that they very poor baffles in these old trucks. If you're going for a completely stock restoration, with no visible aftermarket parts, then the best way to do it would be to use a tank off of a much newer truck. There are some that have much better baffles. 2010 and newer is what I would use. If you don't then the needle on the gauge will always be moving and never give an accurate reading of the fuel level.
