Re: hole in gast tank

[Mike Phelps <mikeph@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just got my 65 Belvedere Convertible back from the body and paint shop (looks awesome). While the tank was out of it I discovered a rust hole near the top of the tank. I didn't want to take any chances so I ordered a replacement from Layson's. I planned on replacing the lines and sending unit (ordered a sending unit too) anyway, Now I know it's all new from the tank to the carb. They had a May Madness discount of 20% on everything. With the discount it was just over $200.00.
By the way, anyone know what size fuel line in a 65 Bel. big block, it's 3/8s isn't it?
