    Thanks.

    No one made a tank specifically for my wagon either per se. But I took the tank out and compared it to pictures of a 1966-67 Satellite 2/4 door gas tank and it looked the same as the tank in my '69 wagon. The new tank was a perfect match. Never would have known if I did not take a chance.

    Eh...I just figured the original lasted 40 years without any por15, why bother? In retrospect, if I pull the tank anytime down the road I will treat it or at least paint it.

    School grounds? :rofl: Nah....

    Thanks. I saw it and had to have it.

    I never really went anywhere..but it is much easier to find info and tech help on a brand specific forum.

    The 68 and 69 b body wagons used the tank I installed. They are the same as 66-67 be body sedan/2door. Now...and I don't know for sure, but maybe the c body wagons or real early wagons had the tank tucked into the quarters.

    That was a bit of a shock :49: when I scrolled down. And that is one unique color you picked out there.

    Will the entire car be this color or just the engine bay? I don't believe you'll have any trouble seeing the back of your engine when it's all back together. ;)

    Congratulations on getting this far you must be very excited


    Beaming really:dance:
