Default 32 Pickup Fuel Sender

Anyone know if there is a modern fuel sender conversion unit for the 32 pickup?

I don't believe so. Why would you want to change it? It's made mostly of brass and is usually good if cleaned up a bit or maybe resolder a cracked joint.

A modern conversion will be electric which means a new sender, wires and a new gauge in the panel. Most modern gauges will be larger requiring you to enlarge the hole in the gauge panel. Modern gauges will also not match the original speedometer or the ammeter faces. I would either rebuild the original myself or send it somewhere to be rebuilt. You have a nice looking truck, keep the original gauge.

Thanks all.
I'll look into the stock sender to see what it needs for repair and return to service.

The sender for a pickup is in the bottom of the tank to use an electric one you have to cut a hole in the top of the tank
