Album: 57 Ford gas tank replacement

Description: I recently replaced the gas tank in my '57 Ford. I replaced it because it sprang a leak while I was 50 miles away, at work. It had rusted through, and not for the first time. Previous owners had patched it two or three other times. Another patch would not do.

57 Ford gas tank strap bolts new
The Bob Drake tank is a bit smaller (though the 20-gallon capacity is the same), so a shorter gas tank strap bolt is needed to tighten the straps sufficiently. Since it's a simple carraige bolt, new ones can be found at a hardware store.
