1965 Fury III fuel tank.

[Mark]

New to the forum and have a question. I know that nobody reproduces the 65 fuel tank, at least I have not seen one. Are the width , length , and height dimensions on a 66 the same where you could theoretically cut the rear quarter section of it off and weld on the 65 rear quarter? Front half of my 65 tank is not good. Thoughts?

No idea but welcome to the site from the Motor City!

Welcome!!
That's a lot of work for just a gas tank.
You're far better off getting a new '67 tank and modifying it for the side filler.

That's what I was thinking of doing to a 66 tank Commando1. I've actually seen new 66 tanks. Thanks!

Quanta doesn't reproduce the tank you need?

Thats them, but look, they dont advertise a 65. Yeah, you gotta call just to be sure

Nope. I've seen 66 tanks that have the rear fill tube, but never a 65 with the side (driver's) tube repro'd.

if options get really limited northbay65, I might get in touch with you.

 

[northbay65]

the polara has a rear fill will this be the same?
