Gas Tank Capacity

Anyone know how much fuel the original gas tank holds? I haven't sorted out my broken fuel gauge yet so I've been careful about filling up; haven't put more than ~9.5 gallons in at any one point. Starting to get curious as to what my range might be.

Re: Gas Tank Capacity

What year? The '60-'63 are probably different than '64-'66.

Re: Gas Tank Capacity

The 60-62 tanks are different in shape than the 63-66 tanks, however, I think I read somewhere that they are 20 gallon tanks. I don't remember for certain though

Re: Gas Tank Capacity

20.5 Gallons. The .5 is because of the indent for the spare tire
