    Gas Tank Replacement

    Much thanks to everyone for their help regarding the gas tank of my ’63 Falcon. While I liked the idea of going with a new mustang tank and an internal (and secure) filling option. Jerry was kind enough to offer up a tank from his ’65.
    I popped out the old tank out (image 1) and then prepped the trunk area around the tank (images 2 and 3). I then lined the opening with double sided tape to form a good seal before dropping the “new” tank in (image 4). Jerry the tank looks great! Thanks again for your help!
    I wish it went as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4…but the old tank was not bolted in, and when they put installed the new exhaust, they encroached on some of the tank space. So I need to try and realign the exhaust system. Also when I went to hook-up the gauge (something I was very excited about doing) I could not get the hook-up to slip on. Does anyone know a trick for this?
