35' gas tank ID
Is there a way to tell if a gas tank is for a 35' panel ???
Found a guy who has a barn full of all sorts of gas tanks and has about a dozen that look very close to online photos. My panel's tank had absolutely no bottom so I removed the filler pipe and sending unit and discarded it 30 years ago when I dismantled the truck. Dumb move on my part. |

Re: 35' gas tank ID
take your sending unit---up to 35 was hydrostatic, 36 was electric, different size, if you find a tank your sender fits it is at least 35 or earlier---

Re: 35' gas tank ID
Which panel delivery version do you have, the 112" wheelbase commercial version or one of the larger versions on truck chassis?

Re: 35' gas tank ID
Ford 35, If you have the 112" wheelbase panel delivery, then it is the same tank as used in the 35 pickup. 35 tanks have a small hole on top to receive the 35 hydrostatic gas sending unit. The panel/pickup tank will have a different filler neck connection than the passenger car doe that year. See enclosed photos.

Here are photos of the tank I have with my 35' 112" panel filler pipe mocked up in its position. Next question; Suggestions on the least invasive way to get the elbow inside ?? |
