Gas Tank questions - '68 D100

Post by indianajoel »

My original gas tank is leaking on my cab floor. I spent a lot of time and money sealing it and fixing the pick up tube a year ago, so I might keep it, but ...

Do any of you guys have a recommendation for an underbody tank replacement? with a compatible fuel sender?
Maybe newer (80's) Dodge truck would be the best.
(That's how I picked a new radiator -- it works well...complicated hose setup, tho.)

Or if I fix the leak, is there a mopar fuel sender I can put in the original tank to have a working gauge?

Thanks for any help.

If you do a search, there are a few guys that have used Poly tanks from 70's trucks. Surfnuke used a replacement ford tank and it looks great.

You would have to relocate the filler neck with most other tanks. :thinking
