    What are your thoughts on this tank?

    I've seen the article on fitting a tank from a 69 mustang. Is the 64 tank any different?

    I know I'd have to move the filler and add a vent. I'm just concerned about mounting the tank.

    I think the 69 is a 20 gal. tank instead of 15, which just means it's deeper/taller. The 15 gal tank fit in my van easily and I hung it with doubled-over plumber's strap since I was missing the stock straps.

    running a 69 tank from a cougar in my crate Fred Carello in RI supplied it ... bought steel straps from local supplier and built custom straps as close to original as possible and used original hardware
