gas tank and patch panels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

2tankin79 · 03-15-2005, 10:14 PM

i have one brand new gas tank for a 73-87? chevy truck, i bought it for my truck but never installed it, and never even matched them up to see if they were the same..
I also have two patch panels for the 73-87 chevy bed sides, they are the upper wheel arch.
i paid around $60 for the tank, and $15 for the panels
i'll take $25 plus shipping for all of it.

do you know "for sure" that the gas tank does fit 73-87 trucks?...ya dont sound too sure of yourself

where did you get the tank from?

2tankin79 · 03-15-2005, 11:51 PM

i am not sure what year it will fit..i know its for the 70's 80's chevy trucks.. i never really got a chance to take a good look at the gas tank in my truck.. I got the tank off of ebay about 2 years ago off of a store that sold gas tanks.. i'm for sure the description stated 73-87 chevy trucks, but i'm not 100% sure on the years, hence the ? after 73-87.. i'm not asking much for it, because i dont know much about it.. my gas tank had rust in it, and i just eventually sold the truck, so i dont need any of my left over parts, (tank, panels, and stock springs) I can get a picture of it, and the panels.. i'm sure you guys would know better then I..

is it a fiberglass tank or metal?

72 CustomCamper · 03-17-2005, 02:12 AM

The tank is the same left or right. The difference is the fuel sending unit.The main question should be is it a 16 or 20 gallon?

**Phuloi68** · 03-17-2005, 08:46 AM

where in Indiana are you. Is it for a long bed?
