fs: auxiliary gas tanks + switch in WI/Chicago

I pulled these auxiliary tanks out of my 71 Cheyenne and won't be needing them. These are the common aftermarket (dealer installed?) tanks that mount behind the bedside between the cab and rear wheels, and are typically accessed through a fuel door cut in the bedside. I did run the truck once from them and nothing bad came out when they were drained.

I have the tanks and the floor mounted valve to switch them. I don't have the fuel lines because they were plastic and broke during removal. Also, one of the tank's pickup tubes cracked during removal and the heads on the mounting rods had to be ground off.

I haven't seen any of these change hands so I'm uncertain of value. I'll say $50.00 or best offer for both tanks and the switch. They are located in central WI right now but could be picked up in Westfield, WI or Chicago or anywhere in between. They're too bulky and heavy to ship.

Sorry, there is no guage switch. They were not connected to the fuel guage.

These are still available and I'd rather see someone make use of these instead of scrapping them. Keep in mind that I can load them up and meet someone between Chicago and central WI.

If these tanks are factory, are they still available?

muscletrucks,
the factory only installed one aux. fuel tank. it was located on the driver side , filled at about the same level as the in-cab tank except the aux. fill neck was on the bedside, had a guage switch on the dash and the tank switch on the floor under the drivers seat edge area. hope this helps you a little.

Thnaks, that is what I am looking for. I recently bought a 72 ¾ ton 4x4. I had a factory aux fuel system but it was removed.
