Saddle tanks ? Impala gas tank solutions?

Hi gang,

I have 69 C20 Camper Special and it has the 2 poly saddle tanks. They have very old punky fuel and at least 1 of them is leaking. Do they still make them anywhere, or has anyone found an aftermarket tank that could be placed in the same location?

My goal is to get rid of the in-cab tank, and I don't want to put a filler neck thru the steel bed. I don't want to remove the 8 foot bed and cut into the frame for side filler The only solution coming to mind is using the location where the saddle tanks are, or I am starting to research more about a late 1960s Impala tank, and get a hinge license plate bracket and hide the filler behind that.

Also, are the poly saddle tanks baffled? Are the old impala tanks baffled? We are doing an LS conversion next week.

All suggestions and comments welcome, I'm quickly learning a lot.

Thanks
