Gas tank removal
I have an all steel 32 5 window coupe. It has a stainless steel gas tank. I want to install a Tanks electric fuel pump inside the tank. Does the body have to come up to get it out and also is the tank flat enough on the top to install a Tanks electric fuel pump?
Thanks,
WadeDrive it like you stole it

I was just working on this problem today. I measured where the fuel pick up and sender are located on the tank, and then transfered these measurement to the floor pan in the trunk, and used a hole saw and drilled the floor pan.
Tomorrow I will make a removable cover for this acces hole.

This is a photo of a 32 original tank. I do not know about a repro stainless tank ... but I know to get the electric in tank fuel pump installed ... the tank would need to be out. The edge where the Stewart Warner fuel level sending unit ( added by me ) and the original fuel pickup are ... is not very wide. 3 inches or less.

I did not know Mike very well, we exchanged some messages from time to time but from what I understand he was a very good man. I was sad to learn about this
