Help for 1966 chevy panel? *edited by mod* - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello everyone, I am new to this board and hope I am posting in the correct area.

I have recently aquired a 1/2 ton 1966 chevy panel. The gas tank is leaking and I was wondering if one of the under the bed conversion tanks would bolt in in place of the original.

Welcome to the board. Since your thread could have been read as a wanted to buy, I removed that portion. To post wtb, you need to post in the parts boards, which requires a paid subscription. Subscribe here This is a result of abuse by some. It helps pay expenses and gives you more benefits.

To view parts available from vendors go to

The parts you are looking for are available as reproductions.

As for the fuel tank, the kits will work, but usually require some work to install. I know from experience that GMC Pauls will be able to answer your question about what has to be done to install the tank in your truck.

Leaking from where?

If you just have a gas smell in the cab, without a specific location for the leak - it is probably the rubber portion of the gas filler tube. You can get a new one from the online places or get one (rated for gas, not a radiator hose) from Napa. I've bought one from Napa before, so I know they carry it. You may have to "convince" the counter guy though.
