1960 Stepside Fuel tank Questions
I have a 60 GMC Short box Step side and I looking to relocate the fuel tank under the bed. I would like to know what you have used and see pictures of your builds.
Thanks. Eric |

Look at Lakeroadsters build in the projects section, he used a tank for an early 50's Chevy passenger car, It worked really well.

I have a 60 stepside and it has a x frame. I don't know how much different they are from later frames but flit may not be the same dimensions as these tanks being shown.

Re: 1960 Stepside Fuel tank Questions
I just got a price check at my local salvage yard for a s10 1988 gas tank. It's 13 gal. which is ok for me. I decided to use the side tank. Next week, I'll check the measurement and buy if it's smaller than 40 in. long and 12 in wide.
