C20 Gas Tank Move

Hello guys,

I wanted to know why there are lots of kits to move the gas tanks for 63'-66' C10's and none for a 61' C20, is that much of a difference?

Yes, the frame on the '60-'62's are a good bit wider than the '63-'87 frames. I believe Boyd Welding makes a tank specifically for the '60-'62's. You might check with him.

Hey 62,
Got a local hot rodder/fabricator in your area? If he's a good welder, have him fab you up a tank. You'll get one built to your specs, cheaper, and support your local economy.
Just my $.02
