Hi
        The '66 Tank is a contoured tank that fits up into the rear section
of the car behind the diff , it has a depression formed  into it to make it
hug against the trunk floor depression or in the case of a wagon the under
floor storage area or footwell in the case of an 8 passenger wagon. There is
no way the tank will fit a 62 to 65 "B" body wagon as those fit up into the
left rear fender.

 Regards
  Wally
