I have been looking for an underbed gas tank to replace the tank in the cab in my 69. If anyone can recommend a site to find them on or have bought one from somewhere please let me know.

Check out www.truckandcarshop.com . I got their Blazer kit for 203.00 shipped to my door. There is also a post in the FAQ section that uses this kit and how to do it.

These guys are awesome and will build the tank to your specs from stainless steel. They built the tank for my truck and I plan for them to build the one for my new project.

Got mine from the truck & car shop mentioned above, also. $211 shipped to my door. Includes teh tank, straps, sending unit, & seals. I think it is a 21 gallon one. Works mighty fine and fits even better.

Got mine from Classic Heartbeat..(Tacoma area) If you sweet-talk Wes he will assemble the sendind thingy for ya. Think it was 225.00 then 10.00 for filler piece.. and the 1 1/4" hose I found at a oil filter supply shop for 5.00 a ft.

I have a new custom aluminum fuel tank (19.5gal.) only 9.5" deep with sending unit for $325.00 on the shelf ready to go. I build tanks on the side, but am not inestered in shipping them. If you live around the Wichita Ks. area you could check it out.
