Illinois. I don't know how big the tank is but I'm guessing about 12 gallons. Either that, or my gas gauge is WAY off. It moves left to right when I drive, so I'm not exactly sure where empty is. The far left hash mark is my guess, but the needle goes way past that when I turn the truck off. I err on the side of caution because I don't want to be stranded.

37 or something around there I guess? No plans on moving it, trucks still here today and was never lit up so why would I think it would now?

I echo your sentiments, Andy. We're glad to have you with us still, Losthope.

I don't smoke cigarettes, so mine's still stock.

[newbe351]

Where we at now, 40? I like my spare....

[K5 Addiction]

It's in place till tomorrow. Just got my keg in the bed. removing the old tank & shaving the old filler neck tomorrow.

I'm running with a stock tank.

A couple of heat lamps focused on the outside would easily cook the tank enough to evaporate any remaining water. I use them all the time for small to medium painting projects and they are really handy to have around. These are the clamp on type I keep permanently mounted over the bench:

[nomrlz]

guess i'll stay at 44 till we can start on the 5.3 swap

[cruznfb]

45.....i plan on keeping it.

I know what you mean....I just put a 700r4 transmission and a Ididit column in my 65. The new column is great because I was able to mount it about 3 inches closer to the dash. Its nice to have the extra belly clearance. LOL.....

[jbwolfe]

49 here, and no plans of change. When I bought the truck, I pull the gas tank out and drained it, and in the process was able to see that the tank is in perfect shape. One thing to be said for tanks being in the cab, they stay out of the weather that way.

[markeb01]

For some unknown reason my steering wheel has migrated much closer to my six pack abs over the time I've owned the truck. Shortening the steering column and/or using a wheel with a shallow dish is really the most effective way to gain some belly room. Unless a person can tolerate having the seat back straight up vertical, removing the stock tank won't allow the seat to move back any further because the upper part of the seat back hits the bulge just below the back window same as it did with the tank in there.

50. The rest of the truck is pretty much stock so what the hey.

[1963c-10]

The consensus seems to be the majority still have in cab tanks...glad to see.
