MD DECAL - Main Aux Fuel Tank - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Steve Hafner · 01-27-2011, 09:07 AM

Does anyone reproduce the "Main Aux Fuel Tank" sticker that is located above the left A/C outlet ? It came from the factory on trucks with Auxiliary fuel tanks. I've seen some pictures of what looked like new ones that were put on restored dashes.

**special-K** · 01-27-2011, 10:00 AM

No one makes them and I have thought about having some made. I have one I peeled from the '72 Longhorn cab I am using on my '67 project. I think it's salvageable enough to reproduce.

Hey Tim, go for it. We would buy one

mtdave2 · 01-27-2011, 11:01 AM

mine is in perfect shape if i remember, do you need a photo?

Steve Hafner · 01-27-2011, 11:13 AM

A photo would be great.

**RenoKeene** · 01-27-2011, 11:19 AM

Hey Steve,
Here is one for reference.

71 super · 01-27-2011, 03:23 PM

My brother has a NOS one that if enough were interested in could be used to reproduce. Let me know how many would be interested and I can look into it and let you know.

Steve Hafner · 01-27-2011, 03:51 PM

I'm sure I'm not the only one looking for one - anyone who paints their dash and who has this switch on it, will need one. They are almost impossible to get off in one piece and in good condition. Check into how much it would cost to make some. Thanks !!!

Harold, you know we need one for our 72 longhorn and would take an extra.
Always appreciate you Paul and Jason
P.S. how did the fender look

**jerry moss** · 01-27-2011, 08:01 PM

i would buy two at least and i'm sure i could get several more sold if someone can repop them.

**special-K** · 01-27-2011, 08:14 PM

I'll look into it.

71 super · 01-27-2011, 09:49 PM

Paul I am very happy with the fender. It arrived in great shape. Thank you very much. I will get the sticker and have a guy local take a look at it. It should be a simple deal. I will let you know. H

ole red · 01-27-2011, 09:52 PM

I would take 3

mtdave2 · 01-31-2011, 09:50 AM

yep i would buy a few myself as backups.

**w314speed** · 01-31-2011, 11:41 AM

I would take two! Does anyone know how many were built with aux fuel tanks? I was lucky to find two NOS tank valve interior plastic covers. Dan

Hey Dan, I do not know how many were built but I do know we have one and you have one and if you want to sell one of those plastic covers we would take it..lol
Good to hear from you Paul

**w314speed** · 01-31-2011, 02:41 PM

I actually have a K20 and C20 BB with the aux tanks. I will keep you in mind if I sell one of my trucks. Thanks, Dan

Steve Hafner · 05-04-2011, 07:24 PM

Has anyone found some way to reproduce these ?

Steve Hafner · 06-21-2011, 07:32 AM

Below, is a picture of the sticker that goes above the left A/C vent "ball" above the switch. A member of this website is NOW looking into having these stickers made - if it all works out - who still wants one ?

**DeadheadNM** · 06-21-2011, 07:56 AM

I would take one.

**special-K** · 06-21-2011, 08:36 AM

Just FYI,this sticker is for the switch that controls the gauge. The valve to switch the tanks is in the floor between the seat and door. It has a plastic molded plaque that labels which tank the lever is on.
I'll look into getting some made. I backed off when I saw someone else had a N.O.S.,which would be the best to copy. But,I'll get on this as soon as I get a chance to stock down to the sign shop.

**jerry moss** · 06-21-2011, 09:48 AM

i'd still like to have a couple.

The N.O.S. one turned out to be the one pictured below - one made for a truck with THREE tanks - not the one pictured above.

LakeMtn · 06-21-2011, 01:29 PM

Reproducing these would be cool and also it would be nice to be able to get those 2 position rotary switches that go bad that switch the tank senders. Mine is bad, been looking for a working one.
