Re: 64 wagon gas tank



Wally, Very interesting, What's the '66 wagon and sedan gas tank look like?
I know the '62-'65 wagon's have a beveled corner to clear the wheel well.
Can the '66 be made to fit in our older wagons? Has anyone tried to retrofit a fuel cell?
Can a gas tank from a sedan be made to fit some how? Has anyone tried this?
just wondering
thanks
Schuyler

Hi
I've had wagons for years (1963 Dodge 330 wagon,1963 Plymouth
Belevedere Wagon, 1958 Dodge Custom Suburban,1959 Dodge Custom Sierra) and
what you did by repairing your tank is it , I've been looking for a tank
supplier for years. I salvage what I can and repair . I've never been lucky
enough to score an NOS one for the fifties or the sixties wagons and believe
me I've been looking. I got lucky with my Dad's '66 Corocnet Station wagon
as the sedan and the wagon share the tank , I got a new one from Spectre
Industries.

I thought that a couple of weeks ago that when I had scrapped the rear end
of
my 64 Belvedere wagon on a low driveway that I had popped the seam of the
gas
tank because no sooner than I had driven into the parking lot it was pouring
out gas, and I left a trail behind me as I drove home. Then we were hit with
a
week of sub zero temps and I couldn't look at it, now we have had weeks of
record warm temps. (go figure) I finally got under it and I couldn't find
where the leak was. A local radiator shop that does gas tank repair took it
out and in the rear lower section of the tank had rusted out. I had driven
this car for two years with no hint of a problem. They welded in a patch
boiled out the tanks and put in double the liner that they usually do. It is
working just fine now. My question (finally) is where can I get a new tank
for
the wagon. I looked all over the net and could only find tanks for the cars.
Every listing always said excep. wagon. Any help just let me know thanks Bob
A.
