fuel tank

looking for fuel tanks for my 1960 fleetside short bed project and it seems most tank kits are listed from 63-72. Whats different about my 60 from a 63?

Re: fuel tank

The rear frames are wider, I do believe.

Re: fuel tank

I have seen a couple of company's that make them but I don't remember who. Maybe someone else will chime in. You could always use the thinner tank as long as you strap it in well.

Re: fuel tank

Yes it is mainly due to the increases width of the '60-'62 frames. The only tank that I know of that is made for the '60-'62, is made by Body Welding. He is a vendor here on the forum.
